• Hadoop Best Practices in the Cloud

  by Richard Cole

  Amazon Elastic MapReduce is one of the largest operators of Hadoop in the world, with over one million Hadoop clusters run on the Amazon Web Services infrastructure over the last year. Since its launch over three years ago, the Amazon Elastic MapReduce team has helped users of all sizes manage the wide variety of Hadoop failure conditions, hardware and network issues, and data errors that make operating Hadoop clusters so challenging. These failures and/or performance degradations have kindled the team to develop a number of tools and best practices to help its customers more efficiently operate and troubleshoot their Hadoop clusters. This talk will detail the team’s findings, including a number of Hadoop best practices and general troubleshooting tips.
