👉 Apache Computing refers to the philosophy and technology framework that enables the creation of large-scale, distributed computing systems using open-source software, particularly Apache projects. It emphasizes scalability, fault tolerance, and flexibility, allowing organizations to build and manage complex applications across multiple nodes, whether in the cloud or on-premises. Central to this approach is Apache Hadoop, which provides a distributed file system (HDFS) for storing vast amounts of data and MapReduce for parallel processing, alongside tools like Apache Spark for faster data analytics. This model supports diverse workloads, from batch processing to real-time stream processing, making it a cornerstone for big data and cloud-native applications. Its open-source nature fosters collaboration, innovation, and cost-efficiency, empowering businesses to harness the power of distributed computing without vendor lock-in. (Approximately 300 tokens)
