Very basic question about sharing loading to difference machines

Hi , if
we try to make use of hadoop to distribute the load of my application
to difference hosts. However, as we already
identified the bottleneck of the system is database access, just use map
reduce to load balance the application properly doesn't help
much, can we use Map reduce to also distribute loading of DB layer?
