Sorry, I sent this earlier from the wrong account. Hello to the Hadoop Core development group,
I am interested as to weather or not I could use Hadoop in the pseudo-distributed mode to launch multiple client processes on all cores of a multi-core processor and then re-assemble the results.
Map-reduce is probably overkill for this kind of thing, but I have very limited engineering resources and can't really start from scratch with pipes or sockets or an MPI implementation. If Hadoop can be configured to do this out of the box, that would be very useful. I am also dumping my results into a Java database (H2), so it would be nice to keep the entire application in Java.
I would greatly appreciate any information that could be provided. Mark LMH_medchemist
