Apache Spark BigData Data partitioning Graph algorithms
Many of today's large datasets are organized as a graph. Due to their size it is often infeasible to process these graphs using a single machine. Therefore, many software frameworks and tools have been proposed to process graph on top of distributed infrastructures. This software is often bundled with generic data decomposition strategies that are not optimised for specific algorithms. In this paper we study how a specific data partitioning strategy affects the performances of graph algorithms executing on Apache Spark. To this end, we implemented different graph algorithms and we compared their performances using a naive partitioning solution against more elaborate strategies, both static and dynamic.
