Dear Group, I’m in the ‘big data’ practice at Accenture and am also a big fan of Sagemath, using it almost daily. I’ve recently started wondering what interest you and the community would have in integrating Sagemath a bit with Hadoop or another map-reduce framework so that operations written in Sage could be shipped off to a running cluster for some distributed computation, along with being able to run Sage on much larger datasets than would fit on a single host.
There are some existing solutions which are clients to Hadoop’s map- reduce framework, such as Hive, which provides a pretty standard SQL- like front-end to a live cluster, that made me wonder if there’s not a way to extend the usefulness of Sagemath in a similar way. I'd love to hear what interest there was in this idea.
