Introduction to Big Data with Hadoop on Windows Azure and Server by Joe
Homnick
June 21 GCUG in Boca Raton
Big Data is the management of large/huge
datasets and has become a hot topic in IT circles over the last couple of years.
Microsoft is entering the Big Data foray with Hadoop on Windows Azure and
Server 8.
Apache Hadoop is a software framework that supports data-intensive
distributed applications under a free license. Microsoft is embracing
this standard community driven approach with support and tools in both its Cloud
and Server 8 software. This presentation will give an introduction to Big Data
and how it is being implemented on the Microsoft software stack.
