Apache Hadoop

  • Apache Hadoop is an open-source software framework written in Java for distributed storage and distributed processing of very large data sets on computer clusters built from commodity hardware.
  •  All the modules in Hadoop are designed with a fundamental assumption that hardware failures (of individual machines, or racks of machines) are commonplace and thus should be automatically handled in software by the framework. 
  • The core of Apache Hadoop consists of a storage part (Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS)) and a processing part (MapReduce). 
  •   To process the data, Hadoop MapReduce transfers packaged code for nodes to process in parallel, based on the data each node needs to process.  

The base Apache Hadoop framework is composed of the following modules:
    • Hadoop Common – contains libraries and utilities needed by other Hadoop modules;
    • Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) – a distributed file-system that stores data on commodity machines, providing very high aggregate bandwidth across the cluster;
    • Hadoop YARN – a resource-management platform responsible for managing computing resources in clusters and using them for scheduling of users' applications
    • Hadoop MapReduce – a programming model for large scale data processing.

    The Hadoop framework itself is mostly written in the Java programming language, with some native code in C and command line utilities written as Shell script. For end-users, though MapReduce Java code is common, any programming language can be used with "Hadoop Streaming" to implement the "map" and "reduce" parts of the user's program. Other related projects expose other higher-level user interfaces.

    Export Internet Explorer Security Zone Information

    Internet Explorer assigns a security zone to any website that the user is visiting. Next to the two generic zones Internet (all that are not in another zone), Local Intranet (local sites) are Trusted sites and Restricted Sites. Trusted sites will usually have a lower security level than restricted sites. One could for instance move financial sites or sites from companies like eBay or Amazon into the Trusted sites list. Restricted sites are those that should be accessed with lower permissions. Good for websites that need to be accessed but are not that trusted. If a user accesses the Internet with multiple computers he might want to use the same security zone settings on all of them. The easiest way to do that would be to export the security zones on one computer and export them to all others instead of adding sites to the zones manually on all computers. Internet Explorer is storing the security zone information in the Windows Registry. To export the settings of the currently log

    The First 10 People Who Sign up On Facebook

    The First 10 People Who Sign up On Facebook 10. Zach Bercu sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net “The past eight years have been extraordinary,” Bercu said. A graduate of Emory’s medical school, Bercu spent a year in Israel, where he became fluent in Hebrew. He completed his residency in New York, part of the last intern class at St. Vincent’s, whose “hospital infrastructure crumbled around me,” he remembered of the facility, which closed in 2010. Now a resident at Mount Sinai in radiology, Bercu plans to complete a fellowship in interventional radiology, a form of “micro-surgery.” From his undergraduate years, “whether through Facebook or in person,” Bercu says he “took with me some of the greatest friendships one could have.” 9.

    Shortcut key to align code in eclipse

    While learning java or working with java, we may need to copy a code from other source like internet or other files. When we do that the code may looks messy like before. which is not in standard and difficult to work on complex logics. Below key is useful to align the messy code:       Ctrl + Shift + F:   Formats a selected block of code or a whole source file.  Format messy code to Java-standard code.  If a code block is not selected, Eclipse applies formatting for the whole file. #shortcut key to align code in eclipse #shortcut_key_to_align_code_in_eclipse #shortcut_key_to_format_code_in_eclipse #shortCut key to format code in eclipse #shortcut_key_to_code_ alignment_in_eclipse #Auto- Alignment Shortcut Key  in  Eclips e
