Apache Spark vs. Hadoop MapReduce via @Intersog

The new Apache Spark has raised a buzz in the world of Big Data. It promises to be more than 100 times faster than Hadoop MapReduce with more comfortable APIs, which begs the question: could this be the start of the end for MapReduce?

Great article by Jenny Richards on Intersog.  At the moment there is a place for both as it really does depend exactly what you want to do.  Over time that might change but for now there is definitely a place for them both.
