There are many other components that help with devices, credentials and user access, and so on, but that is the core. Hadoop is exactly the same thing. The core of Hadoop is the Hadoop Distributed File System, which is a file system that’s runs across many nodes. It links together the file systems on many local nodes to make them into one big file system. Hadoop MapReduce is really the job scheduling system that takes care of scheduling jobs on top of all those nodes. That is the key distinction between Hadoop’s approach and that of database systems.
