Avner BenHanoch commented on MAPREDUCE-4049:
--------------------------------------------

Hi Alejandro,

Thanks for your quick handling - I appereciate that!

This issue is devoted to "generic shuffle service", including both provider & 
consumer part (even properties' names in xml have same scheme).  Arun reviewed 
the branch-1 patch at July 13, 2012 and left with just minor nits that were all 
handled long time ago.
Following your guideline: "I assume the trunk version does not (will not) have 
a Map side because the ShuffleHandler is already pluggable. Given that, the Map 
side (ShuffleProvider) seems an artifact of the backport of this JIRA. Because 
of that, I think is OK to have it here."

Saying all the above, I'll be happy to have this subject concentrated in one 
place and in one piece.

> Support generic shuffle service as set of two plugins: ShuffleProvider & 
> ShuffleConsumer.
> This will satisfy the following needs:
> # Better shuffle and merge performance. For example: we are working on 
> shuffle plugin that performs shuffle over RDMA in fast networks (10gE, 40gE, 
> or Infiniband) instead of using the current HTTP shuffle. Based on the fast 
> RDMA shuffle, the plugin can also utilize a suitable merge approach during 
> the intermediate merges. Hence, getting much better performance.
> # Satisfy MAPREDUCE-3060 - generic shuffle service for avoiding hidden 
> dependency of NodeManager with a specific version of mapreduce shuffle 
> (currently targeted to 0.24.0).

> # I am providing link for downloading UDA - Mellanox's open source plugin 
> that implements generic shuffle service using RDMA and levitated merge.  
> Note: At this phase, the code is in C++ through JNI and you should consider 
> it as beta only.  Still, it can serve anyone that wants to implement or 
> contribute to levitated merge. (Please be advised that levitated merge is 
> mostly suit in very fast networks) -
