Large transfers for data analytics on shared wide-area networks
Hamidreza Anvari, Paul Lu · 2016
One part of large-scale data analytics is the problem of transferring the data across wide-area networks (WANs). Often, the data must be gathered (e.g., from remote sites), processed, possibly transferred (e.g., for further processing), and then possibly disseminated. If the data-transfer stages are bottlenecks, the overall data analytics pipeline will be affected.
