A method to visualize the communication and execution processes of the MapReduce program on large-scale distributed systems

Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Parallel programs are being executed to analyze large-scale data on large-scale clusters. Since it is common for communication processes to become concentrated on some servers while execution processes become concentrated on other servers, it is difficult to optimize parallel programs. As the cluster size increases, it becomes more important to understand the execution and network statuses of the servers. Of particular difficulty is comprehending execution status. In this report, we propose SphereViz, a visualization tool that makes it easier to tune programs. This tool can show the execution status and communication statuses of many servers simultaneously with the target being a parallel program running on a large-scale cluster. This tool collects the server logs after program execution, restructures the server logs, and shows the server logs in order of time. Since our tool visualizes the servers as balls on a big sphere and sets connections between the racks, and thus the servers in each rack, it can visualize the execution loads and the communication traffic among many servers. Programmers can analyze the execution status of their programs and then optimize their programs. In this report, we describe an application and the implementation of a prototype. We evaluate the optimization of the MapReduce program on a 100-node distributed system using the example of a simple program.
