Chapter 11. Where to Go Next
This book has, as the title suggests, sought to give a beginner to Hadoop in-depth knowledge of the technology and its application. As has been seen on several occasions, there is a lot more to the Hadoop ecosystem than the core product itself. We will give a quick highlight of some potential areas of interest in this chapter.
In this chapter we will discuss:
What we covered in this book
What we didn't cover in this book
Upcoming Hadoop changes
Alternative Hadoop distributions
Other significant Apache projects
Alternative programming abstractions
Sources of information and help
