Opportunities in Big data analysis

Due to invention of Hadoop framework by Apache community, now a days we are capable of processing 100 peta (for example) bytes of data together. And even it could be more. Our present traditional software system are incapable of holding such a huge volume of data which typically we refer as Big Data. By utilizing Hadoop and it's eco system, we can store and process that volume of data in order to find out intricate information. There is a growing...

Performance of Hadoop Map-Reduce

The performance of Hadoop Map-Reduce job can be increased amicably without investing more on the hardware cost. Simply tuning some parameters according to the cluster specifications, input data size and processing complexities. Here are few general tips to improve Map_reduce job performance - Always we should use compression when writing intermediate data (mapper output) to disk before shuffling - Include combiner in the appropriate position. - LongWritable data type is incorrect as output when range of output values are in Integer range. IntWritable...
