Hadoop is an open-source software framework designed for storing and processing large datasets across clusters of commodity hardware. It enables the handling of vast amounts of data by utilizing a distributed file system known as the Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS), which breaks data into smaller blocks for efficient storage and retrieval. Hadoop’s architecture includes components like YARN for resource management and MapReduce for parallel data processing. This framework is particularly valuable for big data applications, as it provides scalability, fault tolerance, and the ability to process data in a distributed manner, making it a cornerstone of modern data analytics.
