Introducing Apache Hadoop

Apache Hadoop is a software framework that enables distributed processing on large clusters with thousands of nodes and petabytes of data. Apache Hadoop clusters can be built using commodity hardware where failure rates are generally high. Hadoop is designed to handle these failures gracefully without user intervention. Also, Hadoop uses the move computation to the data approach, thereby avoiding significant network I/O. Users will be able to develop parallel applications quickly, focusing on business logic rather than doing the heavy lifting of distributing data, distributing code for parallel processing, and handling failures.

Apache Hadoop has mainly four projects: Hadoop Common, Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS), Yet Another Resource Negotiator (YARN), and MapReduce.

In simple words, HDFS is used to store data, MapReduce is used to process data, and YARN is used to manage the resources (CPU and memory) of the cluster and common utilities that support Hadoop...
