About This Book
- Develop MapReduce applications using a functional development language in a lightweight, high-performance, and testable way
- Recognize the Scalding capabilities to communicate with external data stores and perform machine learning operations
- Full of illustrations and diagrams, practical examples, and tips for deeper understanding of MapReduce application development
Who This Book Is For
This book is for developers who are willing to discover how to effectively develop MapReduce applications. Prior knowledge of Hadoop or Scala is not required; however, investing some time on those topics would certainly be beneficial.
What You Will Learn
- Set up an environment to execute jobs in local and Hadoop mode
- Preview the complete Scalding API through examples and illustrations
- Learn about Scalding capabilities, testing, and pipelining jobs
- Understand the concepts of MapReduce patterns and the applications of its ecosystem
- Implement logfile analysis and ad-targeting applications using best practices
- Apply a test-driven development (TDD) methodology and structure Scalding applications in a modular and testable way
- Interact with external NoSQL and SQL data stores from Scalding
- Deploy, schedule, monitor, and maintain production systems
In Detail
Programming MapReduce with Scalding is a practical guide to setting up a development environment and implementing simple and complex MapReduce transformations in Scalding, using a test-driven development methodology and other best practices.
This book will first introduce you to how the Cascading framework allows for higher abstraction reasoning over MapReduce applications and then dive into how Scala DSL Scalding enables us to develop elegant and testable applications. It will then teach you how to test Scalding jobs and how to define specifications and behavior-driven development (BDD) with Scalding. This book will also demonstrate how to monitor and maintain cluster stability and efficiently access SQL, NoSQL, and search platforms.
Programming MapReduce with Scalding provides hands-on information starting from proof of concept applications and progressing to production-ready implementations.

Store description
We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
