title: Hadoop and Stata
body: <p>Does anyone have any experience using Stata and Hadoop? Stata 13 now has a <a href="http://www.stata.com/java/api/">Java Plugin API</a>, so I think it should be straightforward to get them to play nice.</p>
  
  <p>I am particularly interested in being able to parse weblog data to get it into a form suitable for statistical analysis.</p>
  
  <p>This question came up <a href="http://www.stata.com/statalist/archive/2013-08/msg01182.html">on Statalist</a> recently, but there was no response, so I thought I would try it here where the audience is more likely to have experience with this technology.</p>
