Hello everyone,

Here is some information about Hadoop and HBase I thought would make a good
follow up to my talk:


   - The BigTable paper from
Google<http://labs.google.com/papers/bigtable.html>I mentioned
   - An answer to Scott's question about when RDBMS is more
appropriate<http://blog.rapleaf.com/dev/2008/03/11/matching-impedance-when-to-use-hbase/>

The only thing I'd add to that second article (which is 2.5 years old) is
that large binary data is handled very well by cloud solutions; you just
don't put it in your BigTable/HBase.  Instead, with Hadoop, you'd put it on
HDFS or with Amazon, your S3.  If you need to associate it with a row in
HBase, just store a link.
