Custom .NET in Azure Data Lake
Azure Data Lake Analytics (ADLA) is a world class big data processing platform. One of ADLA’s highlights is the U-SQL scripting language, and its most powerful feature is C# and .NET integration. In this workshop you will learn how to leverage C# to write and deploy custom code and learn the rules of the road for .NET integration and deployment. We’ll get some hands-on experience writing custom Extractors, Outputters, Processors, Combiners, and more. In the process, we will discuss the virtues and limits of code behind, learn how to register and update assemblies, and even see how to embed C# functions directly into U-SQL scripts.
