Hello,

I am new to un-structured world and just started 1 week back on APACHE
DRILL after suggestion from my collegues. We have a semi structured data
where we have constraint that we do not know number of columns

I heard that APACHE DRILL is column free applicationa nd with support of
JSON format, it allows to create columns on-fly,
I converted my data from CSV-like-format to JSON and trying to figure out
if it will work for me.

Here I hit two issues :-
1) My column were like : 3100.2.1.2  and values like '-2303" or '01/01/2015
02:02:00"

Challenge was that column cant be started with Numeric value. So I had to
change key as: "t3100.2.1.2"
After that things were quite OK,

Now I need some help from you guys. To proceed I have to present my work to
management as an example.
But querying on apache drill console, doesnt seem to be an attractive way
to present things.

I tried drill explorer too.But didnt find that so good.
One thing to note, I am playing with files on Hadoop standalone mode in
UBUNTU.

To make it appear more good looking, I started with QLIK SENSE .. but was
unable to connect it with hadoop file system. It only showed me HIVE FILES.
Then I downloaded TABLEAU Trial version ... but I am unable to get Hadoop
data here too...

Please help me how to proceed. I have presentation on coming Monday.
Queries are quite ready .. I just need to show in visualization form
........ using OPEN SOURCE applications only.


Guys please help me.
