Apache Hama now supports YARN, runs at Samsung Electronics 

The Apache Hama team is pleased to announce that we're now supporting not only 
the Mesos but the YARN (thanks to Minho Kim who is a main contributor of YARN 
module). 

Apache Hama is a High-Performance BSP computing engine, which can be used to 
perform compute-intensive general scientific BSP applications, Google's 
Pregel-like graph applications, and machine learning algorithms. 

YARN is the resource management technology that lets multiple computing 
frameworks run on the same Hadoop cluster using the same underlying storage. 
So, for example, a company could analyze the data using MapReduce, Spark, and 
Apache Hama. 

"From the next release, you'll be able to submit scientific BSP applications to 
the existing open source Hadoop, CDH, and HDP clusters without any 
installation," said Edward J. Yoon (@eddieyoon), original creator of Apache 
Hama.

Meanwhile, we're also working on support the HPC environment such as InfiniBand 
and GPUs — According to General Dynamics[1], they already proved the 10x 
performance improvement of Apache Hama on HPC cluster — and also plan to 
support deployment and automation configurations to the Hybrid Clouds for 
solving various problems of Manufacturing Engineering, Science, Finance, 
Research areas. 

This contribution is mainly coming from Samsung Electronics. "Unlike most web 
services companies, our challenge is numerical or signal data, not text data. 
That's why we're investing in High-Performance computing for scientific 
advanced analytics," said SeungHun Jeon, a Head of Cloud Tech Lab at Samsung 
Electronics. 

"Since we build our own analytics platform in the Cloud by leveraging open 
source technologies such as Apache Hadoop, Storm, and Hama, we intend to keep 
making contributions to the Open Source communities," added Hyok S. Choi, a 
Principal Software Engineer at Samsung Electronics. 

About Apache Hama 

Apache Hama[2] was established in 2012 as a Top-Level Project of The Apache 
Software Foundation. It provides High-Performance BSP[3] computing engine on 
top of Hadoop.
