BOOM-MR Evaluation

  • It took 1 person-month to develop the task scheduler and 2 person-months for debugging and tunning performance for large jobs.

  • The LATE scheduling policy in MapReduce involved 800 LOC addition. The same change was accomplish in Overlog with 30 LOC.

  • The existence of interfaces between Java and Overlog caused that integration of the new scheduler (Overlog) with existing system (Java) was simple.

  • The performance was very similar to the original.
