Sorry for the fuziness. We are using hadoop to help doing some lage scale data mining job, like customer behaviour analysis, etc. The problem is that we have too large data sets to fit in commercial data bases, say TB~PB level. Fortunately, we find hadoop, it might be suitable from the aspect of high level design, but we don't know the detailed usability for realworld heavy weight applications.
