Call data records is data that is gathered by telecom operators that are specific to individual customers. We are going to take a look at telecom domain-specific use cases in this recipe.
To perform this recipe, you should have an up and running Hadoop cluster. We need some sample data for these use cases; I have written a data generator, which can used for your reference. You can find it at https://github.com/deshpandetanmay/cdr-data-generator.
