Hey Sonali, A good start is Terrasort:
# generate 10m records hadoop jar $HADOOP_HOME/hadoop-*-examples.jar teragen 10000000 input-dir # run terasort hadoop jar $HADOOP_HOME/hadoop-*-examples.jar terasort input-dir output-dir Which will push your setup some. Its not a complete test, but its a good first test!
