Data Analysis in the Cloud with Apache Hadoop
wednesday 15:35 - 16:25
The Cloud enables us to store and process massive amounts of data. This talk will begin by introducing Apache Hadoop, an open source implementation of Google's MapReduce and Google File System (GFS). We will see how Hadoop utilizes the cloud to distribute data across a set of nodes, and run distributed computations on those nodes to allow for a deeper and broader understanding of one's data.
An Introduction to Big Data and Hadoop
friday 15:35 - 16:25
Hadoop is an open source implementation of Google's Map Reduce and
Google File System (GFS), a distributed file system and processing
engine. Hadoop is used in industry to store and analyze vast amounts
of data on hundreds or thousands of commodity servers. This seminar will talk about Hadoop's uses and implementation from a high level, and introduce some of the other projects and tools that exist in the Hadoop ecosystem that can help companies and individuals with their big data problems.
Big Data and Basic Hadoop Interactive Workshop
