We have been working with hadoop for the last couple of years Patches, but we still find it tough to get other people in our company started on it. I came up with this blog as a starting point and was kinda popular internally, so am moving it here now.
Introducing hadoop in 20 pages is a concise document to briefly introduce just the right information in right amount, before starting out in-depth in this field. This document is intended to be used as a first and shortest guide to both understand and use Map-Reduce for building distributed data processing applications.
Topics covered or concisely presented.
- Introduction to hadoop.
- What is Map-Reduce and how it works ? (With example on how to write an algorithm)
- What is hadoop streaming ? ( A great tool for a newbie ).
- What is HDFS and where is it most suitable ?
- Serialization in hadoop – “how to go about it” and why not use java serialization ?
- Distributed cache.
- Job scheduling in hadoop.
Appendix: 1A on Avro serialization and its benefits over standard techniques.
Appendix: 1B documented examples from hadoop repository.
