-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Thanks Timothy for your short answer, I guess I have to be a bit more specific! Actually I'm interested in the distributed FS rather than in the Map/Reduce features. Did the HDFS change very much since it has been moved out of the nutch project?As far as I can tell the version of hadoop is a very very early one but this hasn't been developed from the scratch right? I can remember that nutch has been around for a while and nutch does make use of HDFS as well. Is there anybody around who runs hadoop in a production env. at all?
Timothy talked about "major bugs" still coming up, so are they rather related to new features or also to the DFS? (I don't need details don't worry) What I need to know is if it is worth to use HDFS to build a prototype and a proof of concept for an upcoming project. If we can not use it due to it's early dev. state it's ok but we could save heaps of time with some information or recommendations. thank you for your answer, simon - -------------- mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Timothy Chklovski wrote: > not at all suitable major bugs still come up > > best, > > --tim > > On 3/13/07, *Simon Willnauer* <[EMAIL PROTECTED] > <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>> wrote: > > Hi Hadoops, recently I read an article in a well known German IT > magazine about Hadoop and HDFS.
