Project Savanna: Hadoop and OpenStack
Timothy Prickett Morgan for The Register about Project Savanna, a collaboration between Mirantis, Hortonworks, and Red Hat:
Batman and Robin. Peanut butter and chocolate. OpenStack and Hadoop. These are things that go together, with the latter pairing being something that commercial OpenStack distie Mirantis, commercial Hadoop distie Hortonworks, and commercial KVM and Linux distie (and soon to be OpenStack commercializer) Red Hat are putting together under a new OpenStack effort dubbed Project Savanna.
Hadoop is at the age where everyone tries to package it and claim they’ll be the Red Hat of the Hadoop ecosystem. I cannot really dot the i-s and cross the t-s, but my gut feeling is that right now all these are actually more similar to the attempts of bringing Linux to the desktop.
We know how successful these have been so far.

Mahout on Amazon EC2: Installing Hadoop/Mahout on High Performance Instance
Danny Bickson:
Full procedure should take around 2-3 hours.. :-(
I think this would be considered a good provisioning speed for ramping up a new machine in your data center. But it is not a good getting up to speed time.

Is Red Hat Interested in the Database Market?
Jim Whitehurst (Red Hat CEO):
When I say I don’t want to be a database company, I’m saying that I don’t want to be a SQL database company.
Now that Hadoop has become the tool for handling Big Data, everyone wants to seat at its table. What most seem to ignore is that Hadoop is just a part of the puzzle. There are many interesting solutions around it where a seat at the table is not yet so busy and expensive.
