32. Part 3. Large Data Cloud Working Group 11 Standards for integrating and interoperating large data cloud services such as those provided by Hadoop and similar systems.

33. Focus of Working Group 12 App App App App App Table-based Data Services Relational-like Data Services App App Cloud Compute Services (MapReduce, UDF, & other programming frameworks) App App Cloud Storage Services Developing APIs for this framework.

34. Benchmarks for Large Data Clouds Until recently, the only benchmark used was Terasort (sorting 10 billion 100 byte records) Replaced by Gray Sort and Minute Sort Gray Sort tries to maximize TB / min sorted on 100 TB or more of data. Hadoop holds the current Gray Sort and Minute Sort records. Problem: sort is just one of the types of work load for analytic applications

35. MalStone MalGen – generates synthetic data with realistic distributions. MalStone A & B – “stylized” computations that can be used as benchmarks for architectures, software and systems for large data clouds. Open source and available at malgen.googlecode.com 14

37. Condominium Clouds In a condominium cloud, you buy your own rack or bunch of racks. The racks are managed and operated by the condominium association, in this case the OCC. If your rack is 120 TB, you get the rights to c. 40 TB of storage in the cloud. The rest is a shared resource. The Open Cloud Testbed is a condo cloud managed by the OCC. 16
