What is Coded MapReduce about?

MapReduce is a commonly used framework for executing data-intensive jobs on distributed server clusters. We introduce a variant implementation of MapReduce, namely "Coded MapReduce", to substantially reduce the inter-server communication load for the shuffling phase of MapReduce, and thus accelerating its execution. The proposed Coded MapReduce exploits the repetitive mapping of data blocks at different servers to create coding opportunities in the shuffling phase to exchange (key,value) pairs among servers much more efficiently. We demonstrate that Coded MapReduce can cut down the total inter-server communication load by a multiplicative factor that grows linearly with the number of servers in the system and it achieves the minimum communication load within a constant multiplicative factor. We also analyze the tradeoff between the "computation load" and the "communication load" of Coded MapReduce.
