What Is <strong>Hadoop</strong>? (cont’d)<br />
• <strong>Hadoop</strong> itself is “free”<br />
• There is already a large “ecosystem” around <strong>Hadoop</strong><br />
– Many projects and products to make it easier to use <strong>Hadoop</strong> (open source and<br />
commercial)<br />
– Commercial support is available in a “RedHat” style model from Cloudera,<br />
Hortonworks and some others<br />
– Commercial support is also available from Greenplum (EMC) and IBM (BigInsights)<br />
who both have <strong>Hadoop</strong> based “products” in their portfolio, as do some others (e.g.<br />
Platform Computing)<br />
• <strong>Hadoop</strong> is widely used in industry today<br />
– Yahoo!, Facebook, LinkedIn, eBay, Quantcast, and many others<br />
• It is potentially “disruptive” technology<br />

<strong>Hadoop</strong> and got a 3x performance improvement for 10% of the infrastructure<br />
cost!<br />
