"Big Data" computing increasingly utilizes the MapReduce programming model for scalable processing of large data collections. Many MapReduce jobs are I/O-bound, and so minimizing the number of I/O operations is critical to improving their performance. In this work, we present Themis, a MapReduce implementation that reads and writes data records to disk exactly twice, which is the minimum amount possible for data sets that cannot fit in memory. In order to minimize I/O, Themis makes fundamentally different design decisions from previous MapReduce implementations. Themis performs a wide variety of MapReduce jobs -- including click log analysis, DNA read sequence alignment, and PageRank -- at nearly the speed of TritonSort's record-setting sort performance [29].
