Synopsis:

Hadoop is an Open-Source Apache distribution designed to handle large amounts of data in a quick and efficient way. The introduction of YARN with the newest release of Hadoop means that these processes are made even more effective when handling obscene amounts of data.

With its friendly but thorough approach, this is the perfect guide for anyone wanting to get to grips with the newest release of Hadoop. Leading you through how to build working systems, we unravel the mystery of YARN and reveal how your data can work for you.

Starting with essentials, we show you how to install and configure Hadoop before really diving in to getting your data working for you. From basic set up to developing applications and maintaining the system, this book gives you everything you need to get started using Hadoop. We also cover tools such as Hive, Pig and YARN to really get the most out of your Hadoop installation.
