REST web service on top of Hadoop

Hi All,

I am still a newbie to Hadoop so please understand my confusions. I went
through many tutorials and through Hadoop's API and yet couldn't figure out
how to make REST webserbvice that would initialize a Map/Reduce Job and read
the result. Can anybody help with this issue? Is(are) there any specific
class(es) to use, or do I have to make some specific integration?

I really appreciate your time and help.

I've done a webapp to do this (and some trickier things like creating 
the cluster when needed), some slides on it
http://www.slideshare.net/steve_l/long-haul-hadoop

there are links on there to the various JIRA issues which have discussed 
the topic

HDFS Proxy in contrib provides HTTP interface over HDFS. Its not very
RESTful but we are working on a new version which will have a REST
API.

AFAIK, Oozie will provide REST API for launching MR jobs.

Hi Alex,

I had one of my students in my Search Engines class at USC prepare this very project. I will work on cleaning it up and trying to get it patch-ready...

Cheers,
Chris
