Abstract

Data generation proliferation and big data utilization increase in different areas, cause to highlight data and virtual machine placement problem in MapReduce framework. Since problem NP-hardness is proven, different algorithms using various techniques have been proposed in recent years and every solution targets some objectives in this regard. But, it has not proposed any troubleshooting solution to placement problem till now and it is still an issue for service providers. In this paper, we present a comprehensive evaluation of current researches and highlight the new paths for researchers by identifying the weaknesses of existing studies. To reach to this goal, we evaluate many of current researches about vm placement in cloud computing and big data applications on cloud computing and select some of them to be presented in this paper. Also, we propose our method to solve the problem and show how it could be more effective than available methods.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Hadoop Distributed File System.

  2. 2.

    Scheduling a task close to the corresponding data is known as data locality [5].

  3. 3.

    Quality of Service.

  4. 4.

    A k-club of a graph G is defined as a maximal subgraph of G of diameter k.

  5. 5.

    It should be noted this evidence is based on the researchers’ experiences in XaaS Cloud implementation. XaaS is the main cloud computing service provider in Iran. Ref: www.XaaS.ir.
