I've read some documentation about hadoop and seen the impressive results. I get the bigger picture but am finding it hard whether it would fit our setup. Question isnt programming related but I'm eager to get opinion of people who currently work with hadoop and how it would fit our setup:
- We use Oracle for backend
- Java (Struts2/Servlets/iBatis) for frontend
- Nightly we get data which needs to be summarized. this runs as a batch process (takes 5 hours)
We are looking for a way to cut those 5 hours to a shorter time.
Where would hadoop fit into this picture? Can we still continue to use Oracle even after hadoop?
