Distributed Computing with Apache Hadoop is a technology overview that discusses:
1) Hadoop is an open source software framework for distributed storage and processing of large datasets across clusters of commodity hardware.
2) Hadoop addresses limitations of traditional distributed computing with an architecture that scales linearly by adding more nodes, moves computation to data instead of moving data, and provides reliability even when hardware failures occur.
3) Core Hadoop components include the Hadoop Distributed File System for storage, and MapReduce for distributed processing of large datasets in parallel on multiple machines.
