Abstract

Big data computing in the cloud needs faster processing and better resource provisioning. MapReduce is the framework for computing large scale datasets in cloud environments. Optimization of resource requirement for each job to satisfy a specific objective in MapReduce is an open problem. Many factors, e.g., system side information and requirements of each client must be considered to estimate the appropriate amount of resources. This paper presents a mathematical model for the optimal number of map tasks in MapReduce resource provisioning. This model is to estimate the optimal number of the mappers based on the resource specification and the size of the dataset.
