Question

Could mapreduce be used to implement a webserver?

I'm thinking something like when a request comes in then the request sits on a queue, until a server is free to process it? Or am I missing the point here?

Was it helpful?

Solution

I think you're missing the point. MapReduce is a way of breaking up a large data set so that it can be distributed among a number of compute nodes for parallel processing.
