Is Horton Works Community Connection site using Hadoop for processing Data???

[#1]

Community connection doing fantastic job by providing solutions to the User's Problems.But My Question is like,Are Developers using Hadoop or related field in developing this??? If yes,what are those???

[#2]

At the moment Hortonworks Community is using AnswerHub as a platform. I believe they are using Django as a backend framework, not sure though. As far as I know we have not connected any HDP tool, @Mark Herring has all the details.

We could definitely use some of the tools from our HDP stack to power different services of our community site. Are you working on a similar use case?

@Jonas Straub

I am not working on any use case similar to community. I am working on Hadoop only. Just thinking how we can connect our HDP tools to power communities like this.

Here are some use case for a community like this:

• Solr to power the search engine of the community
• Hive to analyze access logs and user interaction
• Kafka/Storm to prevent spam (kind of like FraudDetection for banks) and process posts (filter bad words, escape posts, etc.)

I also like the use case from Facebook, they are using HBase for their messages, chats, etc. (https://www.facebook.com/notes/facebook-engineering/the-underlying-technology-of-messages/4549916089...)

As @Jonas Straub states we are using AnswerHub for our functionality. The backend database is MySQL, but here is their stack: http://docs.answerhub.com/articles/1073/answerhub-architecture.html

Wow cool! thanks for sharing the architecture pic 🙂
