Presentation Information

Some of today’s internet software serves millions of users and uses
petabytes of data. NoSQL databases and MapReduce algorithms help us make use
of large numbers of servers in different locations to manage this data and
serve these users. Apache Hadoop provides “open source software for
reliable, scalable, distributed computing”. Some companies using
it<http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/PoweredBy>
 are Amazon <http://aws.amazon.com/elasticmapreduce>,
EBay<http://www.linkedin.com/jobs?viewJob=&jobId=950118>
, Facebook<http://hadoopblog.blogspot.com/2010/05/facebook-has-worlds-largest-hadoop.html>,
Hulu, LinkedIn <http://blog.linkedin.com/tag/hadoop/>,
Twitter<http://www.slideshare.net/kevinweil/hadoop-pig-and-twitter-nosql-east-2009>,
and Yahoo <http://developer.yahoo.com/blogs/hadoop>.

I will give an overview of the Hadoop suite, review a sample java
application using some of the technology, and entertain questions and
discussion.
