Screencast

We have created a screencast showing the use of the Hadoop PCAP SerDe in Hive using Amazon Elastic MapReduce.
You can find the video on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FLxeQciax-Q

Components

This project consists of two components:

Library

Bundles the code used to read PCAPs. Can be used within MapReduce jobs to natively read PCAP files.
See: https://github.com/RIPE-NCC/hadoop-pcap/tree/master/hadoop-pcap-lib

SerDe

Implements a Hive Serializer/Deserializer (SerDe) to query PCAPs using SQL like commands.
