MapReduce/Hadoop

I have a informal interview with a manager at work within our FP&A Business Intel group for web analytics for a new posting concerning a move forward in how we analyze our customer's web activities.

The company is looking at implementing MapReduce/Hadoop for the process. I only have experience with RDBMS, so am wondering if anyone has any input on MapReduce or with Hadoop.

Additional Comment:

It is surprisingly difficult to find people familiar with MapReduce much less Hadoop.

I assume some on here have worked with embarassingly parallel?

I've worked on embarrassingly parallel and some non. Never did anything that required hadoop or mapreduce, though. Sorry.

"embarassing parallel" only works when you have data parallelism, or you can reduce your problem X to adhere to those constraints.

The whole thing is a fad, just like web 2.0. Google pioneered it, and it works fantastic under specific use case scenarios - but more often than not what i find are solutions in search of problems.
