Abstract:Spark is one of the most popular big data analytical platforms. To save time, achieve high resource utilization, and remain cost-effective for Spark jobs, it is challenging but imperative for data scientists to configure suitable resource portions.In this paper, we investigate the proper parameter values that meet workloads’ performance requirements with minimized resource cost and resource utilization time. We propose SimCost, a simulation-based cost model, to predict the performance of jobs accurately. We ac… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
