Do you know any large dataset to experiment with Hadoop which is free/low cost? Any pointers/links related are appreciated.
Preference:
At least one GB of data.
Production log data of webserver.
Few of them which I found so far:
Wikipedia dump
http://wiki.freebase.com/wiki/Data_dumps
http://aws.amazon.com/publicdatasets/
Also can we run our own crawler to gather data from sites e.g. Wikipedia? Any pointers on how to do this is appreciated as well.
回答1:
Few points about your question regarding crawling and wikipedia.
You have linked to the wikipedia data dumps and you can use the Cloud9 project from UMD to work with this data in Hadoop.
They have a page on this: Working with Wikipedia
Another datasource to add to the list is:
- ClueWeb09 - 1 billion webpages collected between Jan and Feb 09. 5TB Compressed.
Using a crawler to generate data should be posted in a separate question to one about Hadoop/MapReduce I would say.
回答2:
One obvious source: the Stack Overflow trilogy data dumps. These are freely available under the Creative Commons license.
回答3:
This is a collection of 189 datasets for machine learning (which is one of the nicest applications for hadoop g): http://archive.ics.uci.edu/ml/datasets.html

It's no log file but maybe you could use the planet file from OpenStreetMap: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Planet.osm
CC licence, about 160 GB (unpacked)
There are also smaller files for each continent: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/World
