How to Replace Apache Hadoop

Overview

Apache Hadoop is a framework that allows for the distributed processing of large data sets across clusters of computers using simple programming models. It is designed to scale from single servers to thousands of machines, with built-in failure detection and handling at the application layer to deliver high-availability services.
