Hadoop and Bigtable are not the same thing. Bigtable is a noSQL database. Hadoop is a big data processing framework. Hadoop is actually an open source implementation of MapReduce, which was developed at Google and which has since been replaced by Flume

- manigandham 6y agoHadoop is a collection of things: HDFS (filesystem), Hbase (keyvalue database), MapReduce (data processing), and YARN (resource scheduling and job management). Hbase was open-source implementation of Bigtable while HDFS was a copy of Google File System. The divergence appeared with other processing frameworks like Spark but now there's Apache Beam to unify it all.
