Hi all, my guess, as good as anybody's, is that Pregel is to large graphs is what Hadoop is to large datasets. In other words, Pregel is the next natural step for massively scalable computations after Hadoop. And, as with MapReduce, Google will talk about the technology but not give out the code impementation. Is this then the next task for Doug Cutting and his team?
Of course, hardly anything can be done before the August talk, and the Euler's theorem is no spoiler at all. But August will be here soon enough, and besides, why do they pre-announce the talk? Maybe they plan to leak something. Does anybody think differently? Sincerely, Mark
