#About RHadoop is a collection of four R packages that allow users to manage and analyze data with Hadoop. The packages are regularly tested (and always before a release) on recent releases of the Cloudera and Hortonworks Hadoop distributions and should have broad compatibility with open source Hadoop and mapR's distribution. We normally test on recent Revolution R and CentOS releases, but we expect all the RHadoop packages to work on a recent release of open source R and Linux.
For more detailed information concerning rmr see [Compatibility] https://github.com/RevolutionAnalytics/rmr2/blob/master/docs/compatibility.md).
RHadoop consists of the following packages:
- NEW! plyrmr - higher level plyr-like data processing for structured data, powered by
rmr
- rmr - functions providing Hadoop MapReduce functionality in R
- rhdfs - functions providing file management of the HDFS from within R
- rhbase - functions providing database management for the HBase distributed database from within R

- Slides and Replay of 30-minute presentation about RHadoop, "Leveraging R in Hadoop Environments".
- R in a Nutshell, 2nd edition devotes a good part of the last chapter to RHadoop. "The most mature (and best integrated) project for R and Hadoop is RHadoop."
