Scalding by Patrick Oscar Boykin.

From the blog:

Today, we’re excited to open source Scalding, a Scala API for Cascading. Cascading is a thin Java library and API that sits on top of Apache Hadoop’s MapReduce layer. Scalding is comprised of two main components:

  • a DSL to make MapReduce computations look very similar to Scala’s collection API
  • A wrapper for Cascading to make it simpler to define the typical use cases of jobs, tests and describing data sources on a Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) or local disk

Interesting find since I just mentioned Cascading yesterday.
