MapReduce with Hadoop Streaming in bash – Bonus! To conclude my three part series on writing MapReduce jobs with shell script for use with Hadoop Streaming, I’ve decided to throw together a video tutorial on running the jobs we’ve created in Oozie, a workflow editor for Hadoop that allows jobs

MapReduce with Hadoop Streaming in bash – Part 3
In our first MapReduce with Hadoop Streaming in bash article, we took a collection of Stephen Crane poems and used a MapReduce job to calculate ‘term frequency’–meaning we counted the number of times each word in the collection appeared in the collection. In the second part, we calculated ‘document frequency’
MapReduce with Hadoop Streaming in bash – Part 2
In MapReduce with Hadoop Streaming in bash – Part 1 we found the ‘term frequency’ of words within a collection of documents. For the documents I chose 8 Stephen Crane poems, and our bash Map and Reduce jobs tokenized the words and found their frequency among the entire set. The
MapReduce with Hadoop Streaming in bash – Part 1
So to commemorate my recent certification and because my Java absolutely sucks, I decided to do a common algorithm using Hadoop Streaming. Hadoop Streaming Hadoop Streaming allows you to write MapReduce code in any language that can process stdin and stdout. This includes Python, PHP, Ruby, Perl, bash, node.js, and
Cloudera Certified Developer for Hadoop (CCDH)
Taking the Cloudera Developer Training for Apache Hadoop had many rewards — one of which was a free voucher to take the CCD-410 Exam (normally $295) which you must pass to get CCDH certified. I’m not sure if that’s a Cloudera University or Global Knowledge thing, but either way it
Hadoop Developer Training – Day 4
This will be a short(ish) post, as my brain is relatively fried from the obscene amount of knowledge imparted by the Hadoop class (and it’s Friday so I’m allowed to be lazy nanny nanny boo boo). To be honest, this was probably the most fun day of class. While the
Hadoop Developer Training – Day 3
Cloudera Developer Training for Apache Hadoop is almost over, and I’m somewhat sad that my Hadoopin’ days are nearly done–in the classroom at least. However, the breadth of this training has been great and I can definitely say I’ve gotten my (company’s) money’s worth. Being that I’m three days in,
Hadoop Developer Training – Day 2
Yesterday I completed the second day of Cloudera Developer Training for Apache Hadoop. While the first day focused on Hadoop core technology like HDFS, the second day was all about MapReduce. That means it was the day that whole ‘developer’ thing was thrown into sharp relief. I’ve been a DBA
Hadoop Developer Training – Day 1
What’s the best way to follow up a week of Oracle OpenWorld? Cloudera Developer Training for Apache Hadoop of course. So today I had my first day. I won’t detail the course itself (though I hope there will be many Hadoop posts to come). But I would like to share
Just how big is your data?
A while back (2007 to be exact, an eternity in Internet years), Google released a product called Google 411. You could call either 1-800-GOOG-411 or 1-877-GOOG-411 and search for businesses by city and state, category, or other criteria. It was a direct competitor to the local expensive 411 services, and
