Hadoop Presentation

Today I did a small presentation on Apache Hadoop

I went though the documentation they have on HDFS, Map-reduce framework, and the Streaming API. I also had to go through the code to understand some of the functionalities in the framework. So far my idea is that the framework is bit more biased towards the text oriented computations. Probably because the initial computations that they use map-reduce are mainly centered on processing large collection of documents (specifically web pages)

Here is my presentation
