Well, nobody should be using MapReduce now, and HDFS now is a lot better than 8 years ago.
Without Google using, validating and releasing those design, we might be stuck with MPI and NFS for a lot longer.
- wbl 8y agoHow many GMM can MapReduce do? What about lattice quantum chronodynamics performance? MPI and Lustre exist for a reason: map reduce isn't great for all problems.
- dikei 8y agoMR never claimed to be great for all problems. It main selling points was big-data and easy-of-use. Sure, MPI might blow MR out of the water in term of number-crunching, but it is also way harder to use.
