Hadoop

Big Data promises to provide companies with a competitive edge by providing a deeper understanding of business operations that support future decision making. Managing large sets of unstructured data requires storage and analytic capabilities beyond traditional data processing applications.

Hadoop is an open-source software framework that provides greater capability for storing significant amounts of data derived from various sources and enormous processing power to handle concurrent tasks in driving greater insights into data. Serving as a complete solution, Hadoop addresses data processing lifecycles from the collection, storage, and organization to processing and reporting. The framework can be scaled to process large amounts of data on different machines simultaneously. By operating on a free open-source framework and using commodity hardware to store data, Hadoop offers a cost-effective solution to Big Data without a significant investment.
