Abstract

Huge amounts of data are required to build internet search engines and therefore large number of machines to process this entire data. The Apache Hadoop is a framework that allows for the distributed processing of large data sets across clusters of machines. The Hadoop having two modules: 1. Hadoop distributed file system and 2. MapReduce. The Hadoop distributed file system is different from the local normal file system. The hdfs can be implemented as single node cluster and multi node cluster. The large datasets are processed more efficiently by the multi node clusters. By increasing number of nodes the data will be processed faster than the fewer nodes.
