The document discusses analyzing Twitter data with Hadoop. It describes using Flume to pull Twitter data from the Twitter API and store it in HDFS as JSON files. Hive is then used to query the JSON data with SQL, taking advantage of the JSONSerDe to parse the JSON. Impala provides faster interactive queries of the same data compared to Hive running MapReduce jobs. The document provides examples of the Flume, Hive, and Impala configurations and queries used in this Twitter analytics workflow.
