Google Hadoop de Yahoo
May 7, 2009
The Register has another interesting write up about Google. This story — “Hadoop – Why Is Google Juicing Yahoo Search?” here – struck me as having two excellent points. The first is that Google’s arrogance is served with the uptake of its approach to data management. Second, Yahoo grabbed on to the Google solution and so far has not narrowed the gap between it and its rival Google. For me the most interesting comment in the article was:
…the old Google arrogance is also at play. In sharing its distributed-computing genius with the rest of the world, Bisciglia says, Google “showed the world that they were right.”
Yep, seems as if Google has been more right than its Web search, online advertising, and rich media search rivals so far.
