It was started with introduction and getting started topics. You will learn why you are supposed to use Hive and installation. After you knew whether you should use it or not. You will learn something about Hive. For example: Data Types and File Formats, Data Definition, Data Manipulation, Queries and etc. You will learn to setup and use some applications what relate to Hive. For Example: Hive Thrift and etc When you read this book, you can follow examples and test command on your test.
For readers, you should know a bit about SQL and XML. However, you can download virtualbox and install, then run hive to practice from book examples, even through you have no idea about Hadoop. Practice and practice! I still believe there is a best way for learning. This book still gathers case studies which are interesting.
Somehow, I read this book, there is helpful for me understand about Hive and how to learn, install, configure and use it further. I could learn many command-line for Hive and Hive SQL. I could follow command and SQL for test by myself. I could learn some parameters about Hive, that's useful for tuning and etc. If you are thinking and planing to implement Hive and find out book. This book might help you.
Something in book should adjust, that might be URL links in a book because some links have not worked. Full Review >

There was written about how to operate the Hadoop. In this book, readers will see 11 chapters and learn about Hadoop architecture, get idea for Hardware selection and etc. After readers read a book, they should be able to understand more about HDFS, MapReduce, planning for Hadoop Cluster, installation and configuration. Topics in a book are difficult more a bit, but Author writes them more interesting and easy to read. If readers read this book and would like to work on Hadoop environment, this book is useful. It will guide readers how to work.
When I read this book - It's definitely a good book to guide readers to install, configure and maintain Hadoop. However, this book is just the guideline. Readers still have to find out more and spend more time with Hadoop. Because, Some chapters explain much more and very helpful for readers, but some chapter will guide readers for idea only.
However, If readers are looking some book to guide and be useful about Hadoop. This book can be your answer. Something, I like in this book. Readers will learn from good examples and ideas from Author.
With layout in this book, it's a quite good. It helps reader to read easy, Pictures and examples in book are properly arranged.

In this book, you will learn a lot of regular expression practicals, but readers ought to have programming skill or basic for it. This book uses "Cookbook" on book title, but material in book is not easy to understand, if reader is newbie developer.
If you are developer and spend time to write code relate to regular expression. I still believe the example in book can help you for solutions. Each example, you will see solution and idea for each problem. Some problems authors have added programming language options (C#, Java, JavaScript, Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby, and VB.NET) as well.
If you read this book, You will know it easy to find each topic and idea. You can read topic which you are interested or can help you. Full Review >

This book has 7 chapters. On the chapter one, It’s explained the simplest about something what I should know before; SQL syntax, MySQL command, some variables and etc. On the chapter two, “You are Not Alone: Concurrency Issues” – Concurrency is important for Database. This chapter is helpful for it. What I learn? For example: Lock and Transactions, Matadata Locking, Monitoring InnoDB Transaction and Concurrency Problems, etc. I believe a lot of DBAs see the lock/concurrency problem. It’s good chapter, that‘s helpful. Anyway, MySQL has a lot of options/variables, So It’s necessary to learn about them. The chapter three, I learned about some options/variables, that effect with database. Good!
That was a little from this book. I rather believe this book is useful for someone who works with MySQL as DBA or Developer.
In this book, it has a good paragraph arrangement. It helps readers easy for reading. It has a lot of examples. It's easy-understand. I think readers can read and practice in the same time. Anyway, I still believe this book be able to figure readers out for MySQL Troubleshooting idea.
What I hope to see more? Maybe... just a little bit.
On the Chapter 4 "MySQL’s Environment", I think It's better to add more examples. Maybe, about OS command-line to help for Troubleshooting :) Full Review >
