Been over a year since my last post. Hadoop has clearly emerged as the O/S for Big Data. The sun of the Big Data Interplanetary system. What I have seen in the past one year is,
a. Lot more adoption of Hadoop
b. Some real production deployments of Hadoop
c. A lot of focus still on the ELT and Infrastructure portion
d. An increasing shift to Advanced Scientific Analysis
This may sound like like a cliche but Hadoop has truly arrived. People are using it for doing real work. A lot of OLAP and decision support systems are now being run on this platform. I will be sharing my Hadoop Implementation Experiences both at a broad, holistic level as well as the down in the weeds technical level. There is a lot to talk about especially relating to how to make all these moving parts firing in harmony to keep the engine purring smoothly.
