Wikipedia, viewed January 17, 2013 (MapReduce is a programming model for processing large data sets, and the name of an implementation of the model by Google. MapReduce is typically used to do distributed computing on clusters of computers ; MapReduce is a framework for processing parallelizable problems across huge datasets using a large number of computers (nodes) ; Computational processing can occur on data stored either in a filesystem (unstructured) or in a database (structured). MapReduce can take advantage of locality of data, processing data on or near the storage assets to decrease transmission of data)
