Explore the performance implications of using solid-state drives (SSDs) for MapReduce workloads in this 14-minute conference talk from USENIX LISA14. Discover a method for benchmarking MapReduce performance on SSDs and HDDs under constant-bandwidth constraints. Learn why cost-per-performance is a more relevant metric than cost-per-capacity when evaluating SSDs versus HDDs for performance-oriented tasks. Gain insights into the potential for SSDs to achieve up to 70% higher performance at 2.5x higher cost-per-performance compared to traditional HDDs. Presented by Karthik Kambatla from Cloudera Inc. and Purdue University, and Yanpei Chen from Cloudera Inc., this talk provides valuable information for those considering the adoption of SSDs in MapReduce environments.
