Synopsis

As Big Data Hadoop and MapReduce technology matures to its second decade, it is used as an essential part of the IT infrastructure of nearly half of the Fortune 500, and continues to grow as its performance improves. Small Data is a term that emerged more recently within the past several years as a top new IT technology buzzword. Little Data is an even more recent term related to potential to integrate advanced analytics into Big Data to enhance current Data Science, by leveraging advanced statistical platforms such as provided by SAS. This book provides both basic and complex introduction to Big Data Hadoop and MapReduce, as well as Small Data Federation, and emerging Little Data extensions to include linkages to Android and Arduino platforms.
