What is Hadoop?
• Software platform that lets one easily write and run applications that
process vast amounts of data. It includes:
– MapReduce – offline computing engine
– HDFS – Hadoop distributed file system
– HBase (pre-alpha) – online data access
• Yahoo! is the biggest contributor
• Here's what makes it especially useful:
– Scalable: It can reliably store and process petabytes.
– Economical: It distributes the data and processing across clusters of
commonly available computers (in thousands).
– Efficient: By distributing the data, it can process it in parallel on the
nodes where the data is located.
– Reliable: It automatically maintains multiple copies of data and
automatically redeploys computing tasks based on failures.

What does it do?
• Hadoop implements Google’s MapReduce, using HDFS
• MapReduce divides applications into many small blocks of work.
• HDFS creates multiple replicas of data blocks for reliability, placing them
on compute nodes around the cluster.
• MapReduce can then process the data where it is located.
• Hadoop ‘s target is to run on clusters of the order of 10,000-nodes.

Hadoop: Assumptions
It is written with large clusters of computers in mind and is built around the
following assumptions:
– Hardware will fail.
– Processing will be run in batches. Thus there is an emphasis on high
throughput as opposed to low latency.
– Applications that run on HDFS have large data sets. A typical file in
HDFS is gigabytes to terabytes in size.
– It should provide high aggregate data bandwidth and scale to
hundreds of nodes in a single cluster. It should support tens of millions
of files in a single instance.
– Applications need a write-once-read-many access model.
– Moving Computation is Cheaper than Moving Data.
– Portability is important.

Apache Hadoop Wins Terabyte Sort Benchmark (July 2008)
• One of Yahoo's Hadoop clusters sorted 1 terabyte of data in 209 seconds,
which beat the previous record of 297 seconds in the annual general
purpose (daytona) terabyte sort benchmark. The sort benchmark specifies
the input data (10 billion 100 byte records), which must be completely
sorted and written to disk.
• The sort used 1800 maps and 1800 reduces and allocated enough memory
to buffers to hold the intermediate data in memory.
• The cluster had 910 nodes; 2 quad core Xeons @ 2.0ghz per node; 4 SATA
disks per node; 8G RAM per a node; 1 gigabit ethernet on each node; 40
nodes per a rack; 8 gigabit ethernet uplinks from each rack to the core;
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server Release 5.1 (kernel 2.6.18); Sun Java JDK
1.6.0_05-b13

MapReduce Paradigm
• Programming model developed at Google
• Sort/merge based distributed computing
• Initially, it was intended for their internal search/indexing
application, but now used extensively by more organizations
(e.g., Yahoo, Amazon.com, IBM, etc.)
• It is functional style programming (e.g., LISP) that is naturally
parallelizable across a large cluster of workstations or PCS.
• The underlying system takes care of the partitioning of the
input data, scheduling the program’s execution across
several machines, handling machine failures, and managing
required inter-machine communication. (This is the key for
Hadoop’s success)
8

How does MapReduce work?
• The run time partitions the input and provides it to different
Map instances;
• Map (key, value)  (key’, value’)
• The run time collects the (key’, value’) pairs and distributes
them to several Reduce functions so that each Reduce
function gets the pairs with the same key’.
• Each Reduce produces a single (or zero) file output.
• Map and Reduce are user written functions
9

Example MapReduce: To count the occurrences
of words in the given set of documents
map(String key, String value):
// key: document name; value: document contents; map (k1,v1)  list(k2,v2)
for each word w in value: EmitIntermediate(w, "1");
(Example: If input string is (“Saibaba is God. I am I”), Map produces
{<“Saibaba”,1”>, <“is”, 1>, <“God”, 1>, <“I”,1>, <“am”,1>,<“I”,1>}
reduce(String key, Iterator values):
// key: a word; values: a list of counts; reduce (k2,list(v2))  list(v2)
int result = 0;
for each v in values:
result += ParseInt(v);
Emit(AsString(result));
(Example: reduce(“I”, <1,1>)  2)
10

Example applications
• Distributed grep (as in Unix grep command)
• Count of URL Access Frequency
• ReverseWeb-Link Graph: list of all source
URLs associated with a given target URL
• Inverted index: Produces <word,
list(Document ID)> pairs
• Distributed sort
11

MapReduce-Fault tolerance
• Worker failure: The master pings every worker periodically. If no
response is received from a worker in a certain amount of time, the
master marks the worker as failed. Any map tasks completed by the
worker are reset back to their initial idle state, and therefore become
eligible for scheduling on other workers. Similarly, any map task or reduce
task in progress on a failed worker is also reset to idle and becomes
eligible for rescheduling.
• Master Failure: It is easy to make the master write periodic checkpoints of
the master data structures described above. If the master task dies, a new
copy can be started from the last checkpointed state. However, in most
cases, the user restarts the job.
12

Mapping workers to Processors
• The input data (on HDFS) is stored on the local disks of the machines in
the cluster. HDFS divides each file into 64 MB blocks, and stores several
copies of each block (typically 3 copies) on different machines.
• The MapReduce master takes the location information of the input files
into account and attempts to schedule a map task on a machine that
contains a replica of the corresponding input data. Failing that, it attempts
to schedule a map task near a replica of that task's input data. When
running large MapReduce operations on a significant fraction of the
workers in a cluster, most input data is read locally and consumes no
network bandwidth.
13

Task Granularity
• The map phase has M pieces and the reduce phase has R pieces.
• M and R should be much larger than the number of worker machines.
• Having each worker perform many different tasks improves dynamic load
balancing, and also speeds up recovery when a worker fails.
• Larger the M and R, more the decisions the master must make
• R is often constrained by users because the output of each reduce task ends
up in a separate output file.
• Typically, (at Google), M = 200,000 and R = 5,000, using 2,000 worker
machines.
14

Additional support functions
• Partitioning function: The users of MapReduce specify the number of
reduce tasks/output files that they desire (R). Data gets partitioned across
these tasks using a partitioning function on the intermediate key. A default
partitioning function is provided that uses hashing (e.g. .hash(key) mod R.).
In some cases, it may be useful to partition data by some other function of
the key. The user of the MapReduce library can provide a special
partitioning function.
• Combiner function: User can specify a Combiner function that does
partial merging of the intermediate local disk data before it is sent over the
network. The Combiner function is executed on each machine that
performs a map task. Typically the same code is used to implement both the
combiner and the reduce functions.
15

Problem: seeks are expensive
● CPU & transfer speed, RAM & disk size – double every 18-24 months
● Seek time nearly constant (~5%/year)
● Time to read entire drive is growing – scalable computing must go at transfer rate
• Example: Updating a terabyte DB, given: 10MB/s transfer, 10ms/seek, 100B/entry
(10Billion entries), 10kB/page (1Billion pages)
● Updating 1% of entries (100Million) takes:
– 1000 days with random B-Tree updates
– 100 days with batched B-Tree updates
– 1 day with sort & merge
• To process 100TB datasets
• on 1 node: – scanning @ 50MB/s = 23 days
• on 1000 node cluster: – scanning @ 50MB/s = 33 min
– MTBF = 1 day
• Need framework for distribution – efficient, reliable, easy to use

HDFS
• The Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) is a distributed file system
designed to run on commodity hardware. It has many similarities with
existing distributed file systems. However, the differences from other
distributed file systems are significant.
– highly fault-tolerant and is designed to be deployed on low-cost
hardware.
– provides high throughput access to application data and is suitable for
applications that have large data sets.
– relaxes a few POSIX requirements to enable streaming access to file
system data.
– part of the Apache Hadoop Core project. The project URL is
http://hadoop.apache.org/core/.

HDFS Architecture

Example runs [1]
• Cluster configuration: ≈1800 machines; each with two 2GHz Intel Xeon
processors with 4GB of memory (1-1.5 GB reserved for other tasks), two
160GB IDE disks, and a gigabit Ethernet link. All of the machines were in
the same hosting facility and therefore the round-trip time between any pair
of machines was less than a millisecond.
• Grep: Scans through 1010 100-byte records (distributed over 1000 input
file by GFS), searching for a relatively rare three-character pattern (the
pattern occurs in 92,337 records). The input is split into approximately
64MB pieces (M = 15000), and the entire output is placed in one file (R =
1). The entire computation took approximately 150 seconds from start to
finish including 60 seconds to start the job.
• Sort: Sorts 10 10 100-byte records (approximately 1 terabyte of data). As
before, the input data is split into 64MB pieces (M = 15000) and R = 4000.
Including startup overhead, the entire computation took 891 seconds.
19

Execution overview
1. The MapReduce library in the user program first splits input files into M
pieces of typically 16 MB to 64 MB/piece. It then starts up many copies of
the program on a cluster of machines.
2. One of the copies of the program is the master. The rest are workers that are
assigned work by the master. There are M map tasks and R reduce tasks to
assign. The master picks idle workers and assigns each one a map task or a
reduce task.
3. A worker who is assigned a map task reads the contents of the assigned
input split. It parses key/value pairs out of the input data and passes each
pair to the user-defined Map function. The intermediate key/value pairs
produced by the Map function are buffered in memory.
4. The locations of these buffered pairs on the local disk are passed back to the
master, who forwards these locations to the reduce workers.
20

Execution overview (cont.)
5. When a reduce worker is notified by the master about these locations, it uses
RPC remote procedure calls to read the buffered data from the local disks
of the map workers. When a reduce worker has read all intermediate data, it
sorts it by the intermediate keys so that all occurrences of the same key are
grouped together.
6. The reduce worker iterates over the sorted intermediate data and for each
unique intermediate key encountered, it passes the key and the
corresponding set of intermediate values to the user's Reduce function. The
output of the Reduce function is appended to a final output file for this
reduce partition.
7. When all map tasks and reduce tasks have been completed, the master
wakes up the user program---the MapReduce call in the user program
returns back to the user code. The output of the mapreduce execution is
available in the R output files (one per reduce task).
