HPCC (High-Performance Computing Cluster), also known as
DAS (Data Analytics Supercomputer), is an open source,
data-intensive computing system platform developed by
LexisNexis Risk Solutions. The HPCC platform incorporates a
software architecture implemented on
commodity computing clusters to provide high-performance, data-parallel processing for applications utilizing
big data. The HPCC platform includes system configurations to support both parallel batch data processing (Thor) and high-performance online query applications using indexed data files (Roxie). The HPCC platform also includes a data-centric declarative programming language for parallel data processing called
ECL.
