Thanks Mark, I guess this may be broadened to the concept of separate compute from storage. Your point on " ... can kind of disappear after the data is first read from the storage layer." reminds of performing Logical IOs as opposed to Physical IOs. But again as you correctly pointed out on the

Thanks Vincent. You mean 20 times improvement with data being local as opposed to Spark running on compute nodes? Dr Mich Talebzadeh LinkedIn * https://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?id=AAEWh2gBxianrbJd6zP6AcPCCdOABUrV8Pw

Performance of Spark when the compute and storage are separated

2018-04-14 Thread Mich Talebzadeh
Hi, This is a sort of your mileage varies type question. In a classic Hadoop cluster, one has data locality when each node includes the Spark libraries and HDFS data. this helps certain queries like interactive BI. However running Spark over remote storage say Isilon scaled out NAS instead of
