I have a public key ASB8VlTKBAJeOdUzWFC-FhjDQgnl_FsisFq2vyVQeSzwewo

To claim this, I am signing this object:

OS X Preferences

A friend asked me for a few pointers to interesting, mostly recent papers on data warehousing and "big data" database systems, with an eye towards real-world deployments. I figured I'd share the list. While it's biased and rather incomplete but maybe of interest to someone. While many are obvious choices (I've omitted several, like MapReduce), I think there are a few underappreciated gems.

	;; ### Bucket to Cluster
	;;
	;;; To get tuples back out of our directory structure on S3, we employ
	;; Cascading's [GlobHFS] (http://goo.gl/1Vwdo) tap, along with an
	;; interface tailored for datasets stored in the MODIS sinusoidal
	;; projection. For details on the globbing syntax, see
	;; [here](http://goo.gl/uIEzu).
