Our world is being revolutionized by data-driven methods: access to large amounts of data has generated new insights and opened exciting new opportunities in commerce, science, and computing applications. Processing the enormous quantities of data necessary for these advances requires large clusters, making distributed computing paradigms more crucial than ever. MapReduce is a programming model for expressing distributed computations on massive datasets and an execution framework for large-scale data processing on clusters of commodity servers. The programming model provides an easy-to-understand abstraction for designing scalable algorithms, while the execution framework transparently handles many system-level details, ranging from scheduling to synchronization to fault tolerance. This book focuses on MapReduce algorithm design, with an emphasis on text processing algorithms common in natural language processing, information retrieval, and machine learning. We introduce the notion of MapReduce design patterns, which represent general reusable solutions to commonly occurring problems across a variety of problem domains. This book not only intends to help the reader "e;think in MapReduce"e;, but also discusses limitations of the programming model as well. Table of Contents: Introduction / MapReduce Basics / MapReduce Algorithm Design / Inverted Indexing for Text Retrieval / Graph Algorithms / EM Algorithms for Text Processing / Closing Remarks

Implement successful remote working policies and processes, build a company culture that motivates a remote workforce and boost business performance, capacity and innovation with this expert guide.

Instead of using the normal channels, the author has taken comments from the manuscript readers who are normal members of the public. As he says they are the people that are important and will be the ones to buy the book.The characters were brilliant, the story line was thrilling and the plot twists through the book, kept it by my side so that any moment of free time I could start reading. I could not bear to put it down. I absolutely loved it! Renee Bolz.Probably the most intriguing piece of work in the modern world of literature... I'm a fan! AbrahamWhat can I say? I'm hooked, cleverly imaginative, full of suspense, loved the characters, looking forward to seeing the manuscript for the sequel. Alfonse.Loved the book now waiting for the movie (and the sequel)!
