在刚刚公布的 InfoWorld Bossie Awards 2015 中，Apache Kylin 与其他众多项目，包括 Spark，Kafka, H2O, Elasticsearch，Zeppelin 等，一起入选“最佳开源大数据工具”奖，是国内团队唯一的一次上榜。
以下是相关奖项信息，相关英文浅显易懂，就不翻译了：
The best open source big data toolsHow many Apache projects can sit on a pile of big data? Fire up your Hadoop cluster, and you might be able to count them. Among this year's Bossies in big data, you'll find the fastest, widest, and deepest newfangled solutions for large-scale SQL, stream processing, sort-of stream processing, and in-memory analytics, not to mention our favorite maturing members of the Hadoop ecosystem. It seems everyone has a nail to drive into MapReduce's coffin.
InfoWorld's top picks in distributed data processing, streaming analytics, machine learning, and other corners of large-scale data analytics.KylinKylin is an application developed at eBay for processing very large OLAP cubes via ANSI SQL, a task familiar to most data analysts. If you think about how many items are on sale now and in the past at eBay, and all the ways eBay might want to slice and dice data related to those items, you will begin to understand the types of queries Kylin was designed for.Like most other analysis applications, Kylin supports multiple access methods, including JDBC, ODBC, and a REST API for programmatic access. Although Kylin is still in incubation at Apache, and the community nascent, the project is well documented and the developers are responsive and eager to understand customer use cases. Getting up and running with a starter cube was a snap. If you have a need for analysis of extremely large cubes, you should take a look at Kylin.
