Hadoop is building a good momentum...

In EMC World this week, many new products based on Hadoop called launched.

EMC announced enterprise and community distribution as well as appliance of Apache Hadoop. This would be in competition with Cloudera which has a very good traction in Hadoop market. Moreover, Yahoo which has been pioneer in original contribution of Hadoop and a heavy user, is rumoured to be launching Hadoop spin-off. It has contributed Pig as a layer above Hadoop.

During the conference other products like Brisk,which makes Hadoop with Cassendra as a node, and SnapReduce from SnapLogic were also announced. Overall all of these are good indication of Hadoop traction. A more detailed note is in my other blog which is dedicated to emerging technologies and apps.
