Good morning. The volume of data is soaring, forcing companies in many industries to deploy a level of analytic processing power that was once reserved for the likes of consumer Internet giants and scientific researchers. #Hadoop is often part of that discussion. Every business person with an interest in data should understand Hadoop, regardless of whether it is part of their data strategy or not.
Hadoop is the focus of a new series of CIO Explainers, which explicate complex technology subjects with the business person in mind. Their purpose is to step back from the news, and explain complex topics in a detailed but readable and clear manner. We hope they will be a reference guide that will be useful over an extended period of time. If you’re a data scientist, you doubtless know how Hadoop works. But what about the thousands of business people who increasingly work side by side with data scientists, developers and engineers? They need to communicate effectively with their new colleagues. This series of articles is designed with them in mind.
