10 Hadoop Application Scenarios

Who's using HadoopThis is a problem. In the context of large data, Apache Hadoophas gradually become a label, the industry's understanding of this open source distributed technology is also deepening. But who is? Hadoop's biggest user. The first thought was of course its "birthplace", a large Internet search engine such as Google, and the Yahoo ad Analytics system. Perhaps you would think that HadoopThe area in which the platform works is the internet industry, which is used to improve analysis performance and improve scalability. In fact HadoopThe application scenario is much more than that, and digging into it, you'll find HadoopCan play a huge role in many places.

Gigaom, a columnist for Science and technology blog in the United States, Derrick Harris has been tracking cloud computing and Hadoop technology for years, and has summed up 10 Hadoop Scenarios in a recent article, The following share for everyone:

Online travel: You know, 80% of online travel sites around the world are currently using the Hadoop distributions provided by Cloudera companies, including Expedia, where Searchbi has reported.

Mobile data: Cloudera operations director said that 70% of the U.S. smartphone data services are backed by Hadoop , that is, including data storage and wireless operator data processing, are using Hadoop technology.

E-commerce: This scenario should be very certain, and ebay is one of the biggest practitioners. Domestic electric dealers in the Hadoop technology is also very strong reserves.

Energy extraction: Chevron is the nation's second-largest oil company, and its head of IT department introduced Chevron's experience with Hadoop , using Hadoop to collect and process data, These data are the seismic data of the ocean so that they can find the location of the deposits.

Energy Saving: Another energy provider, Opower, is also using Hadoopto provide consumers with electricity-saving services, with a predictive analysis of the user's electricity bill.

Infrastructure management: This is a very basic scenario where users can use Hadoop to collect and analyze data from servers, switches, and other devices.

Image processing: Start-up company Skybox Imaging uses Hadoop to store and process image data, and to detect geographic changes from high-definition images taken from satellites.

Fraud detection: This scene is less user contact, general financial services or government agencies will use. Using Hadoop to store all customer transaction data, including some unstructured data, can help organizations detect unusual customer activity and prevent fraud.

IT security: In addition to the management of enterprise IT infrastructure,Hadoop can also be used to process machine-generated data to identify attacks from malicious software or from the network.

Health care: The healthcare industry also uses Hadoop, and Watson, like IBM, uses the Hadoop cluster as the basis for its services, including advanced analysis techniques such as semantic analysis. The medical establishment can use semantic analysis to provide medical personnel to patients and help doctors to better diagnose patients.
