For those interested in using Hadoop (MapReduce, Hive, Pig) against data stored in Cassandra, there will be the first Bay Area Cassandra User Group on Wednesday, January 12. Jonathan Ellis (Project chair and Lead of Apache Cassandra) will be presenting on the forthcoming Cassandra 0.7 release, which includes improved Hadoop Integration.
