Jeopardy Goes to Hadoop
Did you know that Hadoop was the knowledge base behind the Watson supercomputer? I didn’t:
Hadoop was used to create Watson’s “brain,” or the database of knowledge and facilitation of Watson’s processing of enormously large volumes of data in milliseconds. Watson depends on 200 million pages of content and 500 gigabytes of preprocessed information to answer Jeopardy questions. That huge catalog of documents has to be searchable in seconds.
I’d love to read what other open source tools have been used when building Watson. For example has Watson used the Python-based Natural Language Toolkit?
Update: Jeroen Latour points out in a comment a presentation about Watson’s DeepQA Project and an article available in PDF format:

NoSQL Tapes: Video Interviews with NoSQL people
After, what I assume to have been, an amazing adventure talking NoSQL around the globe, Tim Anglade has started to publish the video recordings of his conversations with people involved in the NoSQL products.
The page is listing over 40 videos, but only 6 have been published so far. There are a couple that I’m eagerly awaiting to watch.
Even if I’m a bit envious, I want to thank Tim for his efforts in evangelizing NoSQL databases and polyglot persistence and wish him luck with the new job at Cloudant.
