MapReduce moving into enterprise architecture world

MapReduce is a Google-inspired program looking to help enterprises clean up their databases and put them into the clouds. SearchSOA.com recently took a look at it here. This was a program originated by Google programmers who wrote programs for parallel situations, so data use was properly transferred from program to program. It also analyzes both structured and unstructured data.

- Creation of other kinds of data structures (e.g., graphs)

- Data mining and machine learning.
