Since cost wasn't mentioned as a requirement...

An army of people mounting physical drives with the original dataset to the cluster of machines and M/R copying from local disk would likely be faster.

There are also 40Gbps Infiniband solutions available. Also, the replication could be pushed to a separate network and would eventually achieve consistency (presumably not required in 10mins) thus lowering the primary connection bandwidth requirement to 1PB.

Here's an extremely naïve ballpark estimation: at theoretical hardware speed, for 3PB representing 1PB with 3x replication

Over a single 1Gbps connection (and I'm not sure, you can actually reach 1Gbps)
(3 petabytes) / (1 Gbps) = 291.271111 days

So you'd need at least 40,000 1Gbps network cards to get that in 10 minutes :) - (3PB/1Gbps)/40000 <http://www.google.ro/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=%283PB/1Gbps%29/40000&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&redir_esc=&ei=2WRHUNWtGIWo0QW52oDYDw>

The actual number of nodes would depend a lot on the actual network architecture, the type of storage you use (SSD, HDD), etc.

Subject: One petabyte of data loading into HDFS with in 10 min.

Hi Users,
Please clarify the below questions.
1. With in 10 minutes one petabyte of data load into HDFS/HIVE , how many slave (Data Nodes) machines required. 2. With in 10 minutes one petabyte of data load into HDFS/HIVE, what is the configuration setup for cloud computing.
Please suggest and help me on this.
Thanks&Regards,
Prabhu.
