How to get into Hadoop at home?

Question

Hadoop

Hello. I wanted to dig into the khadup, try it in action, in order to get at least some little bit of experience. I uploaded Ubuntu to the virtual machine, deployed and configured the Hadup cluster, rejoiced, and then realized that I had no idea what to do next. Please tell me where you can peep tasks using Hadup, for the implementation of which large capacities are not required. Or share your experience in getting to know Hadoop.

Answer 1

Hello.
If something from the literature is in Russian, then this is exclusively Hadoop. Detailed guide .
The book you mentioned has a bad translation and lots of mistakes.
As for the distribution, in my opinion, for the first acquaintance, the easiest way is to look at the distribution from cloudera. Moreover, there you can immediately poke into hbase, solr, hive and pig.
Moreover, they lay out pre-configured virtual machines.
As for the tasks - in the book that I wrote, there are cases and links for downloading data "to play around". Yes, and finding data sets is quite simple .
You can more or less feel the breath of the power of technology on a cluster of 3-4 machines, it is problematic to evaluate this on one virtual machine.
