What is Hadoop? Other big data terms like MapReduce? Cloudera's CEO talks us through big data trends

[@drich6719]

I think Mike Olson is great at explaining this in simple terms, and I respect him for being so patient with this interviewer, who is so insecure. Too many interruptions, so needy... Well done to Mr Olson for being so tolerant, and for explaining this topic in a way even I can understand.

[@googlewantsmylife8913]

Excellent video. Can't believe I am just now viewing this 2 yrs later.

[@Feverish_Pitch]

However, I do appreciate that the interviewer constantly asked Mike to explain some of the tech terms that he was using. Tremendously helpful for someone like me who's trying to understand the Big Data space. Overall, I think the interviewer did a great job!!

[@SuperHelloja]

That was an excellent intro to Hadoop and Cloudera. I think the reporter did a pretty good job of asking the right technical questions and interjecting the correct terms as such Mike can talk about it. Bit surprised that some folks did not like it.

[@LookRealty]

Don't understand the complaints as it was a fantastic interview. Mike Olsen is great at explaining everything about his industry. Excellent questions.

[@pammugaadu]

Great explanation by Mr. Mike Olson. Thanks a ton for your time and hope to see more conversations.

[@CarlesZaragoza]

Mike did a good job, it's not easy talk about new stuff...i like his talking about new tech comparing with standard tech, he uses examples very well, very good communicator!

[@qfactor01]

Awesome interview! I thoroughly enjoyed the CEO's explanations which were simplified to laymen's terms. Also, I thought the interviewer did a fantastic job in asking good questions. The whole video was very easy and interesting to watch. Kudos to Robert Scoble!

[@futureguy]

That's really an awesome talk. Mike is so knowledgeable and explains things very clearly.

[@SriniVasanSPV]

I am sure most of the industries have tons of data and they all can do something useful with their data by using this technology. Great interview. Thx

[@chitrabhagat6650]

Very well said and I like the way this guy ties every thing to simple facts and messages. Bleeding edge ;) !!!!

[@eshocktv]

man, this space has exploded in the last 12 months. kudos to mike olson as a communicator.

[@standardkeyboard]

Wow, thank you for posting this.Very helpful and informative.Mike Olson is so smart to answer questions without a second to think. He just answer what's flowing into his mind without any delays like Hadoop. LOL.Anyway, I found him and the interviewer are doing a cool and informal way of interview.It seems that the CEO is just a cool geek, doesn't care if it's interrupting him or whatsoever. see him enjoying answering questions and sharing what's in his mind.I encounter great people like this guy

[@manojkthakur]

A great intro to your company, hadoop and new BIG Data technologies and players. I would strongly recommed for someone to begin the domain understanding. Thanks to youtube for getting us such a powerful presentation to us. Additionally I would have liked to hear few case studies.

[@BobbyMeacham]

Excellent look at #Hadoop and #BigData. #Cloudera Machine Generated Data, Data Generators, Data Scaling and Complex #Data.

[@2kpravin]

Fantastic , Very Insightful, very simple

[@anthonymartinez75]

Great interview, really clarifies the true meaning behind the trends and buzz words.

[@chippfan]

Thank you so much for this super interesting video!! The questions are chosen very carefully, but the answers rock the boat! THANKS!!!

[@samakisan]

haha at 15:48 i felt like he was like "pleaseee, just quit interrupting!!" really informative video though!

[@tvttran]

Thanks so lot for the video. The CEO did awesome job,very well explanation, simple , make Hadoop or topic of "No SQL" become very interesting for starter.

[@turtlemaniacc]

4 Is Interesting, Informative, Intriguing and a very Intelligent interview. Thanks for sharing...... Cheers

[@abdough60]

agree completely with comment below..never interrupt people you interview, especially when they're unique folks like Mike

[@myutbest]

Great interview - good collection of important questions - good collection of answers like a teacher!

[@Hereandtherethisandthat]

Nice job - very interesting overview of Hadoop and the entire space! Checking out the cloudera videos next and the strataconf videos - Thanks

[@saeedamr]

Great Video. Very Nicely explained. Looking forward to more videos similar to this.

[@KaloyanChernev]

This new cloud ecosystem emerging around Hadoop is really fascinating.

[@michaeltinglin7062]

Fantastic Interview..... Very Insightful...

[@mpegster]

One of the most lucid comparisons of relational databases vs. hadoop. Figures, Mike's background as a sQL db guy helps him explain this well.

[@medh2000]

Great explanation of why to adopt Hadoop platform vs traditional RDBMS, the kinds of problems Hadoop is intended to solve

[@D8989]

very informative. I agree, we may be witnessing a change in paradigm.

[@kusali11]

this guys is very articulate on this subject.

[@hemukalyandurga6609]

Very informative... Got real time overview of whats going on..Thanks for the video..

[@Hammett849]

Very nice explaination. IMHO the interviewer could do much better by not interrupting. Anyway, Mike Olson did very well answering the questions and get along with the 'interviewer' with patience.

[@mag3690]

Really nice information on hadoop and related technologies.

[@Cheesyonmytoasty]

Very clear and informative, Great job Mike!

[@jes]

I was just pointed to this and the mention of my name - blast from the past! Thanks for the mention - this seems so long ago in internet years! I'm working on a project right now that may put me right back into this space (to an extent). Crossing my fingers - it involves both social media and Bitcoin :-)

[@spatshello]

Thanks, very good & simple explanation of hadoop world

[@foofoofnik99]

... very useful, good background ... many thanks!

[@jtw549]

That is a cool CEO...I loved the interview and learned a lot from this video. Also, I am going to have to agree with gjvdkamp...more tripod power!

[@tudorlapusan7108]

I really wanted to hear the Mike's point of view about HBase. Unfortunately, that part of video is cut.

[@onawave]

this was a great watch

[@Heavy_Distortion]

Awesome interview! I love tech deep dives.

[@TheShaunRyan]

I've been in large scale (microsoft) data warehousing for many years. This stuff is really fascinating... unstructered big data is where it's at.

[@RobertHardaway]

What I love here is that the hadoop community is staying away from taking on Oracle directly claining you still need an rdbms for structured data. But one of these days we will wake up and realize that map-reduce is just as compelling for tabular data as it is for unstructured, and it's game on with ora/db2/sql server!!

[@venugananv]

Very good and really informative..

[@bluewheelrunner]

Nice break down of the Jargon for a newbie! A stand for your camera will help serve better - but thanks for the good work!!

[@heather1651]

Great interview. Thanks for sharing

[@wishkah256]

Amazing introduction, thank you kindly!

[@dkamle234]

Extraordinary explanation !

[@jfedgar]

agreed... interviewer needs to learn that interrupting people is distracting and not good practice. A good interviewer is good at getting the other person to talk. I think this CEO was actually very patient and maintained composure. I probably would have been annoyed as hell... every time I start to really get into explaining something getting interrupted.

[@drax09]

Great subject matter, great interview.

[@circut13]

Congratulations, your my first subscription

[@qbnronin]

Why the childish hatred towards the interviewer?! He did an excellent job at leading Mr. Olson with questions which made the interview seem more like a conversation.

[@sashafroyland]

Notes: Yahoo - 25,000 server, Facebook 2 petabytes, Google-100,000 jobs for 10,000 applications, Rackspace-study Mail logs. NoSQL, memCachDB, MySQL Drizzle, Distributed Hash Table. Hive - implementation which allows you to talk to Hadoop cluster and kick off MapReduce jobs in parallel to answer questions. HBase - abstraction sitting on top of HDFS to allow filtering. Fantastic Video. Data is a company's most valuable resource - sesidw dot com.

[@WalrusMan7777]

This was fantastic.

[@ggbustatube]

Really good interview. One note however. Interviewer could have been more patient. I think it was Larry King who said, "I never learned anything while talking." But still, great information.

[@angrycoder5520]

this is a good introduction, shit!!! I am 5 years late.

[@saithn]

Nice video, thanks for uploading!

[@yerkolas]

[@YiannisStavrianos]

[@Ben-ki4wn]

Great information from the CEO, the interviewer was horrible.

[@peirancao7983]

Thanks for sharing

[@ChuckStewart]

Great explanation how of companies use Hadoop and other new database technologies that work with social media data. Great stuff.

[@sashafroyland]

Mike Olson is the CEO of Claudera. Big Data is what we are all about at sesidw dot com.

[@Tourismmj]

Thank you very much for nice information ^_^

[@ricksevans]

How do I learn more about Hadoop? 23:45

[@daehee7312]

it's informative interview..

[@sideshow557]

oh, brother. you just want to find a reason to hate it. It was very informative. Your closed mindedness and judgement is whats holding you back.

[@sagarmusale]

Thank You !

[@sk4forum]

Word of the day. "Ubiquitous"! ;) But kidding aside, very informative.

[@HebrewBenYisrael]

Any Exabyte implementations of Cloudera / Hadoop?

[@MilanwareKB]

Awesome!

[@Akhil2481]

super explanation

[@msobert4]

[@SridharKommireddy]

[@madisettir1441]

Cool stufff

[@ednan9]

@v1d30junk you must be old school. This was great info for me.....

[@bazk]

for sure he likes the word "ubiquitous"

[@JrockerForLife]

Very good video. But when you say the name of the company Cloudera to quick it sounds way wrong. Just sayin

[@JeanMichelLetennierVirtuedesk]

we can fix this problem.. easily..

[@ricksevans]

Problem statement: 03:47

[@awfurby]

I like the interview, but really you should learn not to interrupt and use a tripod for the camera.

[@gritesh77]

@bobhardaway Couldn't have put it any better!

[@tdlob1]

18:53 Bet you that's some good coffee.
