March Hadoop Meetup: Using the Hive mind

Our March meetup is on the theme of Hive, and how you can use it to manage and query all your data in Hadoop. We've got two speakers followed by a smaller workshop on Hive. Then beer and pizza as usual which this month is sponsored by 10gen (http://www.10gen.com/).

• MongoDB and Hadoop - Chris Harris

• Hive at Last.fm - Omar Ali

• Hive workshop on AWS - Dan Harvey

The workshop is something we've not tried before so we'll see how it goes. I've got lots of $50 AWS vouchers I can give away to members that turn so so we can spend the rest of the time at SkillsMatter working through tutorials or what ever people want with Hive. We'll have a few people around with experience in Hive so it's a great time to get started and ask them questions!

Also as this meetup is at SkillsMatter please also signup on their site here if you wish to attend: http://skillsmatter.com/event/nosql/hive-mind/js-3750

Thanks,

Dan
