How do organisations use Hadoop and associated technologies ?
Hi,
I am new to Hadoop and would like to understand how exactly are Hadoop and its associated technologies (like Cassandra, Hive, Pig,etc..) used to achieve a business goal ? So lets say an organization has Hadoop and Cassandra or MongoDB and everything up and running. Then what ? What do you do with it and How ? What are the typical business applications that run against it ? Do you have to write something in Java/Python/PHP to get anything you want out of it ?
Like for example if the Oracle Rdbms was the new thing today then the answer to this question would be - it can be used to develop OLTP or Data Warehouse or Analytical applications using Java/php and PL/SQL, or using Informatica, Cognos and such tools to move and analyze data. I guess I am looking for just real world day-to-day use cases of the Hadoop ecosystem.
Would appreciate if anyone can put this into context and perspective for me.
Thanks!
-Percy.

I found use cases but I am looking for info at a lower level - implementation of retrieval and presentation. For example in these cases - http://www.slideshare.net/McK_CMSOForum/big-data-and-advanced-analytics-16-use-cases I want to know what technology stack would be used to retrieve, process/analyze and present that raw data ?<br/><a href="http://overview.mail.yahoo.com?.src=iOS"><br/><br/>Sent from Yahoo Mail for iPhone</a>

Hi Percy,
Just my $.02 but there are quite a lot of case studies out there from the major distributions and tech journalists. Maybe start there.
I think a search for Hadoop use cases or (sorry) Big Data use cases would turn up some useful examples about how organizations are using some of the products you mention.
I know in my shop we cook up new use cases almost weekly :)
Happy reading!
