We came across the stealth mode guys at MapR Technologies recently. They describe what they’re doing as “engineering game-changing Map/Reduce related technologies”. They’re conducting a survey with some interesting questions for Hadoop users. Taking the survey buys you coffee for a few days.

"The debugging, deployment and monitoring facilities of the studio save hours of development time ... Overall, big time saver, easy to use, great work!"
Le Zhao, Teaching Assistant, Carnegie Mellon University
"I am ecstatic about the NetBeans Hadoop plugin from Karmasphere ... That plug-in just flat out rocks! ... I ran my first Windows Hadoop job this afternoon about 20 minutes after I first saw the article. Tonight, I ran a second job on my Ubuntu laptop ... in about 2 minutes, without looking back at the instructions. Everybody needs to look at this plug-in, it's flat out cool and makes Hadoop development an easy, desktop proposition."
