Hi Is there a relationship between HDFS Read throught put and Disk Read throughput.
If yes what would be that. Lets say we have a disk giving us 120 MB/s And a Cluster of 6 Nodes Each Node having 6 disk. So in an absolutely ideal world it should give us a through put of 120*6*6 MB/s if used in parallel In a non ideal world we can divide above by a factor of x Then why is that the general CLUSTER read throughput is so very less. Generally it hovers around 90MB/s. How is the throughput which cluster provides is accounted for. Just for information, configs are , 8 GB RAM, 250 GB HDD, 8 Maps per node, 128 Kb Block size Regards Rohan The information contained in this communication is intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom it is addressed and others authorized to receive it.
