Presenting at Strata Conference Tutorial on Hadoop
January 27, 2011
 |
This coming Tuesday, Feb 1st I’ll be helping at the “How to Develop Big Data Applications for Hadoop” tutorial. |
My specific sections will cover the “why” of using Amazon Web Services for Hadoop (hint – scaling, simplicity, savings) and the “how” – mostly discussing the nuts and bolts of running Hadoop jobs using Elastic MapReduce. I’ll also be roaming the room during the hands-on section, helping out the attendees.
I’m looking forward to the tutorial, and also the Strata Conference itself. Lots of interesting topics, and people (like Pete Warden) that I’ve always wanted to meet.
