Designing system to enable Adhoc queries
Hi, we are designing a data processing system in which the data goes through three different stages as shown below. What azure platforms or technologies do you recommend for a dynamic scenario like the one below where the input file format can change all the time, the transformations applied are not standard and the reports generated vary every time? Extract Data size can be around 1 GB. Can be of various formats and from various sources like FTP, API etc. Transform Transformations are applied on the data. Results After the transformations, results are exported to a final report table from which reports are generated.Big Data on Azure with No Limits Data, Analytics and Managed Clusters

Gateway Timout on Azure Data Factory Copy Task
I'm trying to set up a copy job that connects to a text file in Data Lake Storage (v1) and copies the data to somewhere... I've set up the Active Directory application I've created a Data Factory (tried v1 and v2) I've created the copy task and connected to the Data Lake. I've successfully picked a file on the lake. The fie is a CSV file. On the file format settings screen I get a Gateway Timeout. Activity ID:2f860074-7a71-470d-87b9-b5523a13d8a6 when setting up the file. I've tried a simple file with 2 lines and 3 columns all the way to a zipped file with lots of columns I get a similar error on the v1 factory. Any ideas on what I've done wrong?Azure Data Lake Tools for VSCode supports Azure blob storage integration

Azure Data Lake Analytics combines declarative and imperative concepts in the form of a new language called U-SQL. The idea of learning a new language is daunting. Don’t worry! U-SQL is easy to learn. You can learn the vast majority of the language in a single day. If you are familiar with SQL or languages like C# or Java, you will find that learning U-SQL is natural and that you will be productive incredibly fast. A common question we get is “How can I get started with U-SQL?” This blog will show you all the core steps you need to get ramped up on U-SQL.

Azure Data Lake customers use the Data Lake Store and Data Lake Analytics to store and run complex analytics on massive amounts of data. However, it is challenging to manage costs, keep up-to-date with activity in the accounts, and proactively know when usage thresholds are nearing certain limits. Using Log Analytics and Azure Data Lake we can address these challenges and know when the costs are increasing or when certain activities take place. https://azurecomcdn.azureedge.net/mediahandler/acomblog/media/Default/blog/eaeb8328-7731-4020-8c74-f4e694bd0bef.png In this post, you will learn how to use Log Analytics with your Data Lake accounts to create alerts that can notify you of Data Lake activity events and when certain usage thresholds are reached. It is easy to get started!
