Ruby/Hadoop talk on Tuesday
Posted: March 8th, 2009 | Author: Brad | Filed under: Events, hadoop, ruby | Comments OffA note for interested parties: I (Brad) will be giving a short (10-15 minute) talk on using Ruby with Hadoop for distributed computing. The plan is to give an ultra-brief description of the MapReduce algorithm and Hadoop, show 2 examples of working code (including one with Wukong, Flip Kromers Hadoop Streaming wrapper), and closing notes on my attempts to use JRuby to create Hadoop jobs.
The talk will be on Tuesday at the NYC.rb meeting, 7:00 at Bway.net’s offices. Get there early for a seat, the last one was packed.
