《Hadoop权威指南第三版》是由Tom White编著的一本深入介绍Apache Hadoop及其生态系统的重要参考书籍。这本书于2012年进行早期修订，ISBN为978-1-449-31152-0，旨在为读者提供全面而实用的Hadoop技术理解。作者在序言中表达了对家人的情感，表明写作的动力与目标。书中首先介绍了Hadoop的核心概念，包括数据存储与分析的重要性，它如何与传统系统如关系型数据库管理系统（RDBMS）以及网格计算、志愿者计算等进行比较。Hadoop的发展历史也得到了概述，讲述了它的起源和发展过程，以及它在大数据处理领域的独特地位。接着，章节详细阐述了MapReduce编程模型，这是Hadoop的主要计算引擎。通过实际案例，如分析天气数据集，展示了数据格式转换、数据预处理以及使用Unix工具和Hadoop自身的map和reduce函数进行数据分析的过程。书中还讲解了如何编写Java MapReduce程序，以及如何通过Hadoop Streaming支持多种编程语言（如Ruby和Python）来扩展计算能力。 Hadoop分布式文件系统（HDFS）是本书的重点部分，书中揭示了其设计原理，包括核心概念如数据块划分、副本存储以及文件系统的操作方式。读者可以了解到HDFS如何保障数据的可靠性和高可用性，以及如何设计和运行分布式文件系统任务。此外，书中还涵盖了其他相关的主题，如如何通过Combiner Functions优化MapReduce性能，以及如何利用Hadoop Pipes进行管道式编程。这些内容对于理解和实践Hadoop平台的开发者和数据科学家来说是必不可少的。《Hadoop权威指南第三版》是一本全面、详尽且实用的指南，适合从初学者到高级用户的学习者，无论是希望深入了解Hadoop技术，还是寻求在实际项目中运用Hadoop的开发人员，都能从中获得宝贵的知识和实践经验。

Foreword

Hadoop got its start in Nutch. A few of us were attempting to build an open source

web search engine and having trouble managing computations running on even a

handful of computers. Once Google published its GFS and MapReduce papers, the

route became clear. They’d devised systems to solve precisely the problems we were

having with Nutch. So we started, two of us, half-time, to try to re-create these systems

as a part of Nutch.

We managed to get Nutch limping along on 20 machines, but it soon became clear that

to handle the Web’s massive scale, we’d need to run it on thousands of machines and,

moreover, that the job was bigger than two half-time developers could handle.

Around that time, Yahoo! got interested, and quickly put together a team that I joined.

We split off the distributed computing part of Nutch, naming it Hadoop. With the help

of Yahoo!, Hadoop soon grew into a technology that could truly scale to the Web.

In 2006, Tom White started contributing to Hadoop. I already knew Tom through an

excellent article he’d written about Nutch, so I knew he could present complex ideas

in clear prose. I soon learned that he could also develop software that was as pleasant

to read as his prose.

From the beginning, Tom’s contributions to Hadoop showed his concern for users and

for the project. Unlike most open source contributors, Tom is not primarily interested

in tweaking the system to better meet his own needs, but rather in making it easier for

anyone to use.

Initially, Tom specialized in making Hadoop run well on Amazon’s EC2 and S3 serv-

ices. Then he moved on to tackle a wide variety of problems, including improving the

MapReduce APIs, enhancing the website, and devising an object serialization frame-

work. In all cases, Tom presented his ideas precisely. In short order, Tom earned the

role of Hadoop committer and soon thereafter became a member of the Hadoop Project

Management Committee.

Tom is now a respected senior member of the Hadoop developer community. Though

he’s an expert in many technical corners of the project, his specialty is making Hadoop

easier to use and understand.

Preface

Martin Gardner, the mathematics and science writer, once said in an interview:

Beyond calculus, I am lost. That was the secret of my column’s success. It took me so

long to understand what I was writing about that I knew how to write in a way most

readers would understand.

In many ways, this is how I feel about Hadoop. Its inner workings are complex, resting

as they do on a mixture of distributed systems theory, practical engineering, and com-

mon sense. And to the uninitiated, Hadoop can appear alien.

But it doesn’t need to be like this. Stripped to its core, the tools that Hadoop provides

for building distributed systems—for data storage, data analysis, and coordination—

are simple. If there’s a common theme, it is about raising the level of abstraction—to

create building blocks for programmers who just happen to have lots of data to store,

or lots of data to analyze, or lots of machines to coordinate, and who don’t have the

time, the skill, or the inclination to become distributed systems experts to build the

infrastructure to handle it.

With such a simple and generally applicable feature set, it seemed obvious to me when

I started using it that Hadoop deserved to be widely used. However, at the time (in

early 2006), setting up, configuring, and writing programs to use Hadoop was an art.

Things have certainly improved since then: there is more documentation, there are

more examples, and there are thriving mailing lists to go to when you have questions.

And yet the biggest hurdle for newcomers is understanding what this technology is

capable of, where it excels, and how to use it. That is why I wrote this book.

The Apache Hadoop community has come a long way. Over the course of three years,

the Hadoop project has blossomed and spun off half a dozen subprojects. In this time,

the software has made great leaps in performance, reliability, scalability, and manage-

ability. To gain even wider adoption, however, I believe we need to make Hadoop even

easier to use. This will involve writing more tools; integrating with more systems; and

writing new, improved APIs. I’m looking forward to being a part of this, and I hope

this book will encourage and enable others to do so, too.

Administrative Notes

During discussion of a particular Java class in the text, I often omit its package name,

to reduce clutter. If you need to know which package a class is in, you can easily look

it up in Hadoop’s Java API documentation for the relevant subproject, linked to from

the Apache Hadoop home page at http://hadoop.apache.org/. Or if you’re using an IDE,

it can help using its auto-complete mechanism.

Similarly, although it deviates from usual style guidelines, program listings that import

multiple classes from the same package may use the asterisk wildcard character to save

space (for example: import org.apache.hadoop.io.*).

The sample programs in this book are available for download from the website that

accompanies this book: http://www.hadoopbook.com/. You will also find instructions

there for obtaining the datasets that are used in examples throughout the book, as well

as further notes for running the programs in the book, and links to updates, additional

resources, and my blog.

What’s in This Book?

The rest of this book is organized as follows. Chapter 1 emphasizes the need for Hadoop

and sketches the history of the project. Chapter 2 provides an introduction to

MapReduce. Chapter 3 looks at Hadoop filesystems, and in particular HDFS, in depth.

Chapter 4 covers the fundamentals of I/O in Hadoop: data integrity, compression,

serialization, and file-based data structures.

The next four chapters cover MapReduce in depth. Chapter 5 goes through the practical

steps needed to develop a MapReduce application. Chapter 6 looks at how MapReduce

is implemented in Hadoop, from the point of view of a user. Chapter 7 is about the

MapReduce programming model, and the various data formats that MapReduce can

work with. Chapter 8 is on advanced MapReduce topics, including sorting and joining

data.

Chapters 9 and 10 are for Hadoop administrators, and describe how to set up and

maintain a Hadoop cluster running HDFS and MapReduce.

Later chapters are dedicated to projects that build on Hadoop or are related to it.

Chapters 11 and 12 present Pig and Hive, which are analytics platforms built on HDFS

and MapReduce, whereas Chapters 13, 14, and 15 cover HBase, ZooKeeper, and

Sqoop, respectively.

Finally, Chapter 16 is a collection of case studies contributed by members of the Apache

Hadoop community.
