Site Visit: Yahoo! at Research Park

Take a tour of Yahoo!, located at the University of Illinois Research Park. The Yahoo! staff focuses on two major projects both involving cloud computing. As a Hadoop Center of Excellence, a team of engineers works on Hadoop, an open-source software framework that allows massive data processing distributed across thousands of nodes and petabytes worth of data. Another team works on a data pipeline project that handles, aggregates and processes data generated from clicks on Yahoo!'s advertising platforms.

We will meet at Yahoo! at 4PM. Find out about bus routes to Yahoo!
