Workshop

Introduction to web crawling with StormCrawler (and Elasticsearch)

In this workshop, we will explore StormCrawlera collection of resources for building low-latency, large scale web crawlers on Apache Storm. After a short introduction to Apache Storm and an overview of what Storm-Crawler provides, we’ll put it to use for a simple crawl before moving on to the deployed mode of Storm.In the second part of the session, we will introduce metrics and index documents with Elasticsearch and Kibana and dive into data extraction. Finally, we’ll cover recursive crawls and scalability. This course will be hands-on: attendees will run the code on their own machines.
