Synopsis

Systems Simulation and Modelling for Cloud Computing and Big Data Applications provides readers with the most current approaches to solving problems through the use of models and simulations, presenting SSM based approaches to performance testing and benchmarking that offer significant advantages. For example, multiple big data and cloud application developers and researchers can perform tests in a controllable and repeatable manner. Inspired by the need to analyze the performance of different big data processing and cloud frameworks, researchers have introduced several benchmarks, including BigDataBench, BigBench, HiBench, PigMix, CloudSuite and GridMix, which are all covered in this book.

Despite the substantial progress, the research community still needs a holistic, comprehensive big data SSM to use in almost every scientific and engineering discipline involving multidisciplinary research. SSM develops frameworks that are applicable across disciplines to develop benchmarking tools that are useful in solutions development.

• Examines the methodology and requirements of benchmarking big data and cloud computing tools, advances in big data frameworks and benchmarks for large-scale data analytics, and frameworks for benchmarking and predictive analytics in big data deployment
• Discusses applications using big data benchmarks, such as BigDataBench, BigBench, HiBench, MapReduce, HPCC, ECL, HOBBIT, GridMix and PigMix, and applications using big data frameworks, such as Hadoop, Spark, Samza, Flink and SQL frameworks
• Covers development of big data benchmarks to evaluate workloads in state-of-the-practice heterogeneous hardware platforms, advances in modeling and simulation tools for performance evaluation, security problems and scalable cloud computing environments

From the Back Cover

Systems Simulation and Modelling (SSM) for Cloud Computing and Big Data Applications provides readers with the most current approaches to solving problems through the use of models and simulations. SSM is used in almost every scientific and engineering discipline involving multidisciplinary research. SSM develops frameworks that are applicable across disciplines to develop benchmarking tools that are useful in solutions development. For SSM to grow and continue to develop, modeling theories need to be transformed into consistent frameworks which in turn are implemented into consistent benchmarks. The world is clearly in the era of big data and cloud computing. The challenge for big data is balancing operation and cost tradeoffs by optimizing configurations at both the hardware and software layers to accommodate users’ constraints. Conducting such a study in real time computing environment can be difficult for the following reasons: establishing or renting a large-scale datacenter resource pool, frequently changing experiment configurations in a large-scale real workplace involves a lot of manual configuration, comprising and controlling different types of failure behaviors and benchmarks across heterogeneous software and hardware resource types in a real workplace.

Systems Simulation and Modelling (SSM) for Cloud Computing and Big Data Applications shows you SSM based approaches to performance testing and benchmarking that offer significant advantages. For example, multiple big data and cloud application developers and researchers can perform tests in a controllable and repeatable manner. Fired by the need to analyze the performance of different big data processing and cloud frameworks, researchers have introduced several benchmarks, including BigDataBench, BigBench, HiBench, PigMix, CloudSuite and GridMix, which are covered in this book. Despite the substantial progress, the research community still needs a holistic comprehensive big data and cloud simulation platform for different applications, covered in Systems Simulation and Modelling (SSM) for Cloud Computing and Big Data Applications.
