Hadoop is a big data infrastructure suite and distributed data processing framework designed to store and process massive datasets across clusters of computers. It consists of a distributed storage system for managing large files across multiple nodes and a parallel computing engine for processing data across a distributed cluster. The framework implements a distributed file system to ensure fault tolerance and high throughput, paired with a programming model that processes large datasets in parallel. It manages the underlying hardware and software environment required for distributed big dat
Apache Hive is a SQL-on-Hadoop data warehouse that enables querying and managing petabytes of data stored in distributed storage such as HDFS and cloud storage services. It provides a familiar SQL interface for batch analytics and reporting, supported by a core set of components including the HiveServer2 Thrift service for remote query execution, the Hive Metastore Service for central metadata management, the Hive ACID Transaction Engine for concurrent read-write operations, and the Hive LLAP Interactive Engine for low-latency analytical processing. The WebHCat REST API offers an HTTP interfac
3FS is a distributed file system and RDMA storage cluster designed for high-performance AI training and inference workloads. It functions as a strongly consistent storage layer that utilizes a disaggregated architecture to pool SSDs and memory resources across multiple nodes. The system provides specialized storage implementations including an AI training checkpoint store for parallel state preservation and a distributed key-value cache store for decoder layer vectors to optimize inference processing. It ensures data integrity through chain replication and apportioned query distribution. The
GlusterFS is a software-defined distributed file system and scale-out storage cluster that aggregates disk resources from multiple servers into a single global namespace. It functions as a unified storage platform, allowing the same underlying data to be exposed through file, block, and object storage interfaces. The system distinguishes itself through a decentralized architecture that uses consistent hashing to distribute files across network nodes without a central metadata server. It ensures data integrity and availability using self-healing replication, quorum-based consistency to prevent
