Hadoop File System and MapReduce

We had a great discussion last time on Big Data, Hadoop and it's components in general. Let's continue the discussion this month with a dive deep into HDFS and MapReduce. We will use hadoop fs commands sto manipulate files in Hadoop File System and write Java and Python programs to crunch Big Data. If you want to actively participate in the discussion, please come prepared with the Hortonworks or Cloudera sandbox installed on your laptops. If you need wifi access, please send me your Name (First and Last), Company and email address.
