A Brief History of Hadoop: <\/span><\/span>Hadoop was created by Doug Cutting, the creator of Apache Lucene, the widely used text search library. Hadoop has its origins in Apache Nutch, an open source web search engine, itself a part of the Lucene project.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The Origin Of The Name \u201chadoop\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/strong>. Hadoop is not an acronym; it\u2019s a made-up name. The project\u2019s creator, Doug Cutting, explains how the name came about:<\/span><\/span> \u201cThe name my kid gave a stuffed yellow elephant. Short, relatively easy to spell and pronounce, meaningless, and not used elsewhere: those are my naming criteria. Kids are good at generating such. Googol is a kid\u2019s term.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Hadoop Core Component <\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

HDFS:(Hadoop Distributed File System):<\/span><\/span><\/strong>a distributed file system designed to run on commodity hardware. It has many similarities with existing distributed file systems. However, the differences from other distributed file systems are significant. HDFS is highly fault-tolerant and is designed to be deployed on low-cost hardware. HDFS provides high throughput access to application data and is suitable for applications that have large data sets. HDFS relaxes a few POSIX requirements to enable streaming access to file system<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Mapreduce:<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

MapReduce is a software framework that allows developers to write programs<\/a> that process massive amounts of unstructured data in parallel across a distributed cluster of processors or stand-alone computers. It was developed at Google for indexing Web pages and replaced their original indexing algorithms and heuristics in 2004.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
