Hadoop Streaming on Amazon Elastic MapReduce

Amazon Elastic MapReduce

A presentation on Hadoop Streaming on Amazon Elastic MapReduce (EMR). EMR allows you to very easily launch a Hadoop cluster for all your mapreduce needs.

You can easily view the presentation online, or run it as a reveal.js presentation with start_presentation.sh.

This project has been presented on several events including:

  • 2015-10-07: Data-Intensive Programming (TIE-22306)
  • 2015-02-18: Post-Graduate Seminar on Pervasive Computing: Apache Hadoop (TIE-12206)

Getting started

See the documentation in the src directory. To invoke the AWS API, you will need to setup an account and get API keys. Running an EMR cluster may incur costs on your credit card.
