High-Performance Persistent Storage System for BigData Analysis : 9783656722847 : 16 Sep 2014 : Master's Thesis from the year 2014 in the subject Computer Science - Applied, grade: 82.00, , course: M.Tech CS&E, language: English, abstract: Hadoop and Map reduce today are facing huge amounts of data and are moving towards ubiquitous for big data storage and processing. This has made it an essential feature to evaluate and characterize the Hadoop file system and its deployment through extensive benchmarking. We have other benchmarking tools widely available with us today that are capable of analyzing the performance of the Hadoop system but they are made to either run in a single node system or are created for assessing the storage device that is attached and its basic characteristics as top speed and other hardware related details or manufacturer's details. For this, the tool used is HiBench that is an essential part of Hadoop and is comprehensive benchmark suit that consist of a comple
