The Lecture has presented data rapid growth during last decades where, it raised big data problem that cannot be processed using traditional methodologies due to its characteristics and its huge amount. Several solutions proposed based in parallel processing and data analysis based in HADOOP station. Hadoop station is a programmable station works in Linux basis and computer networking that parallel data processing using MapReduce algorithm. The lecturers involved were DR. Hasanin Sameer and Saif Bashar as a researcher.
