Big data systems development is full of challenges in view of the variety of application areas and domains that this technology promises to serve. Typically, fundamental design decisions involved in big data systems design include choosing appropriate storage and computing infrastructures. In this age of heterogeneous systems that integrate different technologies for optimized solution to a specific real world problem, big data system are not an exception to any such rule. As far as the storage aspect of any big data system is concerned, the primary facet in this regard is a storage infrastructure and NoSQL seems to be the right technology that fulfills its requirements. However, every big data application has variable data characteristics and thus, the corresponding data fits into a different data model. This paper presents feature and use case analysis and comparison of the four main data models namely document oriented, key value, graph and wide column. Moreover, a feature analysis of 80 NoSQL solutions has been provided, elaborating on the criteria and points that a developer must consider while making a possible choice. Typically, big data storage needs to communicate with the execution engine and other processing and visualization technologies to create a comprehensive solution. This brings forth second facet of big data storage, big data file formats, into picture. The second half of the research paper compares the advantages, shortcomings and possible use cases of available big data file formats for Hadoop, which is the foundation for most big data computing technologies. Decentralized storage and blockchain are seen as the next generation of big data storage and its challenges and future prospects have also been discussed.

Leader-based data replication improves consistency in highly available distributed storage systems via sequential writes to the leader nodes. After a write has been committed by the leaders, follower nodes are written by a multicast mechanism and are only guaranteed to be eventually consistent. With Age of Information (AoI) as the freshness metric, we characterize how the number of leaders affects the freshness of the data retrieved by an instantaneous read query. In particular, we derive the average age of a read query for a deterministic model for the leader writing time and a probabilistic model for the follower writing time. We obtain a closed-form expression for the average age for exponentially distributed follower writing time. Our numerical results show that, depending on the relative speed of the write operation to the two groups of nodes, there exists an optimal number of leaders which minimizes the average age of the retrieved data, and that this number increases as the relative speed of writing on leaders increases.

The ever-increasing volumes of scientific data present new challenges for distributed computing and Grid technologies. The emerging Big Data revolution drives exploration in scientific fields including nanotechnology, astrophysics, high-energy physic s, biology and medicine. New initiatives are transforming data-driven scientific fields enabling massive data analysis in new ways. In petascale data processing scientists deal with datasets, not individual files. As a result, a task (comprised of many jobs) became a unit of petascale data processing on the Grid. Splitting of a large data processing task into jobs enabled fine-granularity checkpointing analogous to the splitting of a large file into smaller TCP/IP packets during data transfers. Transferring large data in small packets achieves reliability through automatic re-sending of the dropped TCP/IP packets. Similarly, transient job failures on the Grid can be recovered by automatic re-tries to achieve reliable six sigma production quality in petascale data processing on the Grid. The computing experience of the ATLAS and CMS experiments provides foundation for reliability engineering scaling up Grid technologies for data processing beyond the petascale.
Graphs are by nature unifying abstractions that can leverage interconnectedness to represent, explore, predict, and explain real- and digital-world phenomena. Although real users and consumers of graph instances and graph workloads understand these a bstractions, future problems will require new abstractions and systems. What needs to happen in the next decade for big graph processing to continue to succeed?
Erasure codes are increasingly being studied in the context of implementing atomic memory objects in large scale asynchronous distributed storage systems. When compared with the traditional replication based schemes, erasure codes have the potential of significantly lowering storage and communication costs while simultaneously guaranteeing the desired resiliency levels. In this work, we propose the Storage-Optimized Data-Atomic (SODA) algorithm for implementing atomic memory objects in the multi-writer multi-reader setting. SODA uses Maximum Distance Separable (MDS) codes, and is specifically designed to optimize the total storage cost for a given fault-tolerance requirement. For tolerating $f$ server crashes in an $n$-server system, SODA uses an $[n, k]$ MDS code with $k=n-f$, and incurs a total storage cost of $frac{n}{n-f}$. SODA is designed under the assumption of reliable point-to-point communication channels. The communication cost of a write and a read operation are respectively given by $O(f^2)$ and $frac{n}{n-f}(delta_w+1)$, where $delta_w$ denotes the number of writes that are concurrent with the particular read. In comparison with the recent CASGC algorithm, which also uses MDS codes, SODA offers lower storage cost while pays more on the communication cost. We also present a modification of SODA, called SODA$_{text{err}}$, to handle the case where some of the servers can return erroneous coded elements during a read operation. Specifically, in order to tolerate $f$ server failures and $e$ error-prone coded elements, the SODA$_{text{err}}$ algorithm uses an $[n, k]$ MDS code such that $k=n-2e-f$. SODA$_{text{err}}$ also guarantees liveness and atomicity, while maintaining an optimized total storage cost of $frac{n}{n-f-2e}$.

Experimental Particle Physics has been at the forefront of analyzing the worlds largest datasets for decades. The HEP community was the first to develop suitable software and computing tools for this task. In recent times, new toolkits and systems co llectively called Big Data technologies have emerged to support the analysis of Petabyte and Exabyte datasets in industry. While the principles of data analysis in HEP have not changed (filtering and transforming experiment-specific data formats), these new technologies use different approaches and promise a fresh look at analysis of very large datasets and could potentially reduce the time-to-physics with increased interactivity. In this talk, we present an active LHC Run 2 analysis, searching for dark matter with the CMS detector, as a testbed for Big Data technologies. We directly compare the traditional NTuple-based analysis with an equivalent analysis using Apache Spark on the Hadoop ecosystem and beyond. In both cases, we start the analysis with the official experiment data formats and produce publication physics plots. We will discuss advantages and disadvantages of each approach and give an outlook on further studies needed.
