In this tutorial, I will describe how to write a simple MapReduce program for Hadoop in the Python programming language. Motivation Even though the Hadoop framework is written in Java, programs for Hadoop need not to be coded in Java but can also be developed in other languages like Python or C++ (the latter since version 0.14.1). However, the documentation and the most prominent Python example o
