With the fourth edition of this comprehensive guide, youâ??ll learn how to build and maintain reliable, scalable, distributed systems with Apache Hadoop. This book is ideal for programmers looking to analyze datasets of any size, and for administrators who want to set up and run Hadoop clusters. Using Hadoop 2 exclusively, author Tom White presents new chapters on YARN and several Hadoop-related projects such as Parquet, Flume, Crunch, and Spark. Youâ??ll learn about recent changes to Hadoop, and explore new case studies on Hadoopâ??s role in healthcare systems and genomics data processing. Learn fundamental components such as MapReduce, HDFS, and YARN Explore MapReduce in depth, including steps for developing applications with it Set up and maintain a Hadoop cluster running HDFS and MapReduce on YARN Learn two data formats: Avro for data serialization and Parquet for nested data Use data ingestion tools such as Flume (for streaming data) and Sqoop (for bulk data transfer) Understand how high-level data processing tools like Pig, Hive, Crunch, and Spark work with Hadoop Learn the HBase distributed database and the ZooKeeper distributed configuration service Review: Great book for new API - I have around 14 years of java experience and this was my first book ever on Hadoop. So far I have been reading from internet. I agree that at times it's hard to understand things in one shot but once you re read them, they get clear. The best thing about this book is that it covers everything in new API. I believe Tom White worked really hard to make the overall picture easy enough to understand. I would suggest one thing while reading this book, please have the computer and some IDE open while reading it otherwise you will get lost in theory (which is great nonetheless) and when you actually try to code later, things will go off the top of your head. Another thing is that, there are various things which you'll understand only after reaching at 4th or 5th chapter. If you are learning Hadoop (from scratch) and you have read its first few chapters only, you may find it difficult but once you reach at 4th or 5th chapters then I'm sure you will find this book amazing. Review: Nice update for an already great book - Nice update for an already great book. As other reviews have already mentioned, if you're new to Hadoop, you'll probably need to read a few chapters in order to really get a good picture of what Hadoop is, and how it works. This is not necessarily a problem with the book, but just the nature of the beast when learning as complex as Hadoop. If you're new to Hadoop, take the time to work through the first few chapters, and maybe expect to come back and re-read parts later. If you're an experienced engineer who is looking to get up-to-speed with what has changed in recent versions, you'll definitely find what you're looking for here. I appreciate that this book covers high-level concepts as well as dives deep into the technical details that you will need to know for the design, implementation and day-to-day running of Hadoop and its various associated technologies. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #419,293 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #20 in Parallel Computer Programming #104 in Data Mining (Books) #374 in Software Development (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 295 Reviews | ## Images ![Hadoop: The Definitive Guide: Storage and Analysis at Internet Scale - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91MCeGv3oNL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great book for new API *by S***N on July 30, 2015* I have around 14 years of java experience and this was my first book ever on Hadoop.
