IBM punts commercial Hadoop distro
,----[ Quote ]
| Not everyone is a Google, where the
| MapReduce distributed data cruncher and
| its related file system was created, or
| even a Yahoo, where Hadoop was nurtured to
| do what Google does - but in an open
| source, community-driven fashion. Hadoop
| is used at Yahoo! and Facebook and
| Twitter, and it helps drive a portion of
| Microsoft's Bing search engine. But it is
| not widely understood in the corporations
| where IBM does its business.

Cloud computing's secret sauce
,----[ Quote ]
| Along the way I suspect we'll see open-
| source companies like Puppet Labs and
| Opscode, as well as open-source savvy
| companies like RightScale, really thrive.
| It's one of the first times open source
| has taken the lead in simplifying IT,
| rather than feeding its complexity.

The Challenge to Open Up the Cloud
,----[ Quote ]
| The question is whether this is enough. As
| we've seen in the past, it is very
| difficult to foster open source
| communities in environments dominated by a
| few top players. And with Amazon,
| Microsoft, Google and, increasingly,
| RackSpace calling the shots, it would take
| quite a counter-push on the part of the
| open source community to make any real
| headway. With the cloud is still in its
| infancy, says ZDnet's Paula Rooney, that
| effort will have to come soon before the
| playing field is laid out by the big guys.

Hadoop Crunches Web-Sized Data
,----[ Quote ]
| The answer is a cluster-based analysis
| system, sometimes referred to loosely as a
| cloud database system. At the Cloud
| Computing Conference and Expo Nov. 3 in
| Santa Clara, Calif., representatives of
| Yahoo explained how they use Hadoop open
| source software, from the Apache Software
| Foundation, to analyze the Web.
