Apache Hadoop 2013: State of the Union
A review of the Hadoop ecosystem in 2012:
For several good reasons, 2013 is a Happy New Year for Apache Hadoop enthusiasts.
In 2012, we saw continued progress on developing the next generation of the MapReduce processing framework (MRv2), work that will bear fruit this year. HDFS experienced major progress toward becoming a lights-out, fully enterprise-ready distributed filesystem with the addition of high availability features and increased performance. And a hint of the future of the Hadoop platform was provided with the Beta release of Cloudera Impala, a real-time query engine for analytics across HDFS and Apache HBase data.
In 2013 we’ll probably see the Hadoop ecosystem relationships explode too.
