iHadoop

Functional Description: iHadoop is a Hadoop simulator developed in Java on top of SimGrid to simulate the behavior of Hadoop and therefore accurately predict the performance of Hadoop in normal scenarios and under failures.

iHadoop is an internal software prototype, which was initially developed to validate our idea for exploring the behavior of Hadoop under failures. iHadoop has preliminarily evaluated within our group and it has shown very high accuracy when predicating the execution time of a Map-Reduce application. We intend to integrate iHadoop within the SimGrid distribution and make it available to the SimGrid community.
