That is really funny; I didn’t realize Apollo Computers was involved in of batch computing.

I am somewhat familiar with their name because of their DSEE version control system which eventually became (or inspired?) IBM’s ClearCase. Not that ClearCase is universally loved, but it still is pretty common to see it in enterprises today.

Following the genealogy of technology can be an interesting thing.

I think they do offer this as a discount to full EC2; for example, a CPU hour of Amazon Elastic MapReduce time on a small CPU instance is 0.015 cents per hour versus 0.10 cents per hour for a ‘regular’ small CPU EC2 instance.

I’m surprised it costs *more* for this rather than less since it is trivial to use the hadoop tools to do this yourself and this way is far less flexible. I was hoping it was going to be offered at a discount to full EC2.

I laugh at the cyclic nature of technology. Apollo Computers did this same thing back in the 80’s.

Nice to see good ideas stick around and get implemented in newer ‘clouds’.

Do not be too hasty to jump on Eric for calling Hadoop a file system, after all it contains a distributed file system as well as a Map-Reduce engine.

A much more serious error was caused when database luminaries David DeWitt and Michael Stonebreaker, people who should definitely know better, attacked Map-Reduce as a bad database system. See:
