Hadoop's use cases

Hello,

I would like to collect Hadoop's compelling use cases. I am doing
monitoring, measurements & benchmarking on Hadoop and would like to focus on
its strong side. I have been working on less strong sides (small files, and
the results compared to other systems with similar goals were not
appealing).

The main areas would be ETL, ML related I would think. However I need to go
into further details:
What type of data is appealing to Hadoop, what size, what query?

I found Cloudera's page <http://www.cloudera.com/blog/category/use-case/>,
but it doesnt provide these type of details.
Can you help with more info / ideas?

Thanks,
Keren
