Performance optimization of Hadoop cluster using linux services

Hameeza Ahmed, Muhammad Ali Ismail, Muhammad Faraz Hyder · 2014

Hadoop is an open source tool. It enables the processing and distributed storage of big data sets using commodity cluster computing. With Hadoop occupying a core status in the current processing era, its performance optimization is also being heavily studied. This paper introduces one such method to improve Hadoop cluster performance by using a Remote Procedure Call (RPC), rpcbind service of the Linux system. The comparison is done by executing multiple Hadoop benchmarks on a configured multi-node Hadoop cluster. The final outcome turns in rpcbind favor depicting how the service improves the cluster performance by reducing the elapsed time of the benchmark executed.
