"Hawk is Heroku for Hadoop: an on-demand, easy-to-use cloud service for big data. With Hawk any company will be able to extract the value from their big data without the large amount of effort and cost that Hadoop otherwise requires."
In the 6 minute example, they load a dataset from S3, then use Pig and Python to process it. You can "illustrate" each step of your code, which pulls out small, relevant samples from the dataset and shows the results.
