An impedance mismatch exists between the increasing sophistication of array-centric analytics and the bytestream-based POSIX interface of parallel file systems. This mismatch is particularly acute in data-intensive scientific applications. This paper examines performance bottlenecks and describes optimizations to alleviate them in the context of computational astronomy pipelines and the Hadoop distributed file system (HDFS). We find that fast data ingestion and intelligent object consolidation promise to accelerate I/O performance by two orders of magnitude.
