Programming Elastic MapReduce Using AWS Services to Build an End-to-End Application

Amazon Elastic MapReduce (Amazon EMR) is a web service that makes it easy to quickly and cost-effectively process vast amounts of data. Amazon EMR uses Hadoop, an open source framework, to distribute your data and processing across a resizable cluster of Amazon EC2 instances.
Anyway, You are looking for a book about programming Elastic MapReduce. I mention a book titles - Programming Elastic MapReduce Using AWS Services to Build an End-to-End Application By Kevin Schmidt, Christopher Phillips.
Programming Elastic MapReduce Using AWS Services to Build an End-to-End Application By Kevin Schmidt, Christopher Phillips
This book will give readers the best practices for using Amazon EMR and various AWS and Apache technologies. Readers will learn much more about.
  • Get an overview of the AWS and Apache software tools used in large-scale data analysis
  • Go through the process of executing a Job Flow with a simple log analyzer
  • Discover useful MapReduce patterns for filtering and analyzing data sets
  • Use Apache Hive and Pig instead of Java to build a MapReduce Job Flow
  • Learn the basics for using Amazon EMR to run machine learning algorithms
  • Develop a project cost model for using Amazon EMR and other AWS tools
 A book gives readers how to use Amazon EC2 Services Management Console and learn more about it. Readers will get good examples in a book. However, It will be good, if readers can create an AWS Account and use it with examples in a book. Illustration and example in a book, that is very helpful and make a book easy to read and follow each example.
