Past, Present and Future of Hadoop: A Survey
share
In this paper, a technology for massive data storage and computing named Hadoop is surveyed. Hadoop consists of heterogeneous computing devices like regular PCs abstracting away the details of parallel processing and developers can just concentrate on their computational problem. A Hadoop cluster is made of two parts: HDFs and Mapreduce. Hadoop cluster uses HDFS for data management. HDFS provides storage for input and output data in MapReduce jobs and is designed with abilities like high-fault tolerance, high-distribution capacity, and high throughput. It is also suitable for storing Terabyte data on clusters and it runs on flexible hardware like commodity devices.
