Chris Douglas commented on MAPREDUCE-4502: ------------------------------------------ Thanks, Karthik; that was the tech report I meant to link to earlier (off by one error): http://research.yahoo.com/files/yl-2012-002.pdf > Multi-level aggregation with combining the result of maps per node/rack > ----------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-4502 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-4502 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: applicationmaster, mrv2 > Reporter: Tsuyoshi OZAWA > Assignee: Tsuyoshi OZAWA > Attachments: design_v2.pdf, speculative_draft.pdf > > > The shuffle costs is expensive in Hadoop in spite of the existence of > combiner, because the scope of combining is limited within only one MapTask. > To solve this problem, it's a good way to aggregate the result of maps per > node/rack by launch combiner. > This JIRA is to implement the multi-level aggregation infrastructure, > including combining per container(MAPREDUCE-3902 is related), coordinating > containers by application master without breaking fault tolerance of jobs. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
