Hadoop and Machine Learning

[Mohamed El-Refaey]

Hi Alex,

Big data is a hot topic now due to the huge amount of data that being stored processed in the cloud ... in few years the amount of data will be 26 fold the current amount.
How do you see the machine learning will be helpful in processing this amount of data and provide intelligent ways to get the best out of it?
I see in the book table of contents that you have section about Mahout, so can you please elaborate more of what this section contains?
Thanks!

Regards,
Mohamed
