[LA.pm] January Perl Mongers: Wed 1/27/2010

[Andrew Grangaard]

Hello LA Perl Mongers!

Topic 1: Hadoop Streaming with Perl
Topic 2: TBD
When:    Wed, 2010-01-27
Time:    7-9pm
Where:   Rubicon Project HQ / 1925 S. Bundy, LA, Ca, 90025
Food:    Pizza and BEvERages provided
RSVP:    Responses always appreciated

We'll meet the fourth Thursday of the month, 2010-01-27.
(The third week of January is pretty busy, we've had Mindshare.la 
overlap complaints and our speaker had a conflict on Wednesday)

Our first presentation will be an introduction to using the streaming 
interface[1] to Hadoop[2] from Perl, using Hadoop::Streaming[2].  After 
a brief overview of Hadoop the talk will focus on building streaming 
jobs and getting the necessary infrastructure in place to support them.

Our second presentation slot is open, ready for a volunteer.  Otherwise 
I'll do a second presentation on packaging CPAN distributions using 
Dist::Zilla[4]. "Dist::Zilla - distribution builder; installer not 
included!"

See you on the 27th!
-Andrew
