MapReduce is also important because many graduates are emerging from universities with MapReduce programming experience.
MapReduce for all its strengths is not something that is easy to use by the masses.
Views can be very complex, and can use a built-in MapReduce facility to process and summarize results.
This is a great opportunity to educate them on some of the new tools and on MapReduce.
FORBES: Big Data Needs Data Scientists, Or Quants, Or Excel Jockeys
Capabilities like Splunk and Hadoop and other MapReduce implementations will be employed to distill and summarize machine data.
The same data may be used through SQL, NoSQL, MapReduce, or other forms such as a graph analytics.
One of the largest challenges in putting Hadoop to work is writing the MapReduce programs to transform and analyze the data.
FORBES: Why Adopting the Declarative Programming Practices Will Improve Your Return from Technology
MapReduce is becoming the lingua franca of data scientists, just as SQL has emerged as a standard for database queries, Argyros says.
This opens the power of Hadoop to a much wider audience than if traditional MapReduce programming in Java or other such languages is required.

Similarly, MongoDB queries are JSON documents, specifying fields and values to match, and query results can be processed by a built in MapReduce.
It has a database (Hbase), an analytics environment (MapReduce, Hive, Mahout, etc.), and visualization tools (IBM BigInsights being one of many on the market).
In order to integrate MapReduce, most enterprises need to develop an entirely new skill base, and the human capital investment will quickly outweigh the infrastructure investment.
Pentaho Data Integration can be applied to a single file, to data from any number of sources, from spreadsheets to MPP databases, and also to MapReduce programming.

MapReduce is important in the scheme of big data because it allows processing of analytics at a large scale while abstracting the complexities of doing this processing.
We can achieve a 6x performance speedup and we can drive that to 16x by using a simpler MapReduce model to avoid data motion more efficiently than Hadoop.

Like CouchDB, Riak incorporates MapReduce to perform complex queries efficiently.
In order to get value from big data, business analysts cannot simply be presented with a programming language like Java (or MapReduce) and be expected to start charging forward.
We worked with Lab49 on a back-testing strategy using MapReduce and found that if you can avoid moving data to servers or into storage you get much better performance.

This relieves data scientists from having to be Hadoop managers and MapReduce coders, and it also lets business analysts field new questions across large data sets with relative ease.
In order to get value out of big data, business analysts cannot simply be presented with a programming language like Java (or even MapReduce) and be expected to start charging forward.
FORBES: Why Purpose-built Applications are the Key to Big Data Success
To build the bridge between SQL and MapReduce, Aster has created three keyword extensions to SQL, which allow users to extend queries through a modeling capability that simplifies the necessary language for creating a MapReduce query.
