Introduction

In this article, I am going to demonstrate how to create the Azure Data Lake Store account and the Azure Data Lake Analytics account.

Prerequisites

An Azure Subscription.

Azure Data Lake Store and Azure Data Lake Analytics

Azure Data Lake Store is an enterprise-wide hyper-scale repository for big data analytics workloads. Azure Data Lake enables you to capture the data of any size, type, and ingestion speed in one single place for operational and exploratory analytics. Azure Data Lake Analytics is an on-demand analytics job service to simplify big data analytics. You can focus on writing, running, and managing jobs rather than on operating distributed infrastructure.

Follow the steps to create an Azure Data Lake Store Account.

Step 1

Sign in to your Azure portal.

Step 2

On the portal, click +New >> Data + Analytics >> Data Lake Store.

Step 3

In the "New Data Lake Store" blade, you need to enter a unique name for your Data Lake Store. Make sure "Create new" is selected under "Resource Group" and then, enter a resource group name as "DataLakeResGrp". Choose the location nearest to you and then, click "Create".

Step 4

After successful deployment, our Data Lake Store has been successfully created.

Step 5

Choose the Data Lake Store account in the Dashboard to open the account and explore the various details about your store.

Follow the steps to create an Azure Data Lake Analytics Account.

The data lake is normally separated into the concepts of storing and querying of data.

Step 6

On the Portal, choose "+New" >> "Data+Analytics" >> "Data Lake Analytics".

Step 7

In the "New Data Lake Analytics" blade, enter a name for the new account. For Resource group, select "Use existing" and select the resource group that we created for the Data Lake Store.
