Hadoop Presentation at NOVA/DC Java Users Group

Posted by: Scott Leberknight on 05/10/2011

Last Thursday (on Cinco de Mayo) I gave a presentation on Hadoop and Hive at the Nova/DC Java Users Group. As several people asked about getting the slides, I've shared them here on Slideshare. I also posted the presentation sample code on Github at basic-hadoop-examples.
