Database Reference
In-Depth Information
Summary
As mentioned previously, all the code snippets shared in this chapter are available as
complete source code with the downloads for this topic. The download also contains
db.txt
and
README.txt
for instructions about configuring and running these Java
programs and the Cassandra data definition used in these examples.
In this chapter, we discussed HDFS and MapReduce and integrating them with
Cassandra. Running MapReduce is one solution for large data analytics. However, to
meet more complex analytics requirements, it might be necessary to use built-in APIs
that can build and execute such MapReduce programs automatically. Two of the most
popular tools are Hive and Pig. The next chapter will discuss using Hive and Pig and
their integration with Cassandra.
