A system and method for repartitioning data in a distributed network. The method may include executing, by one or more processors, a first pass of a data set from a plurality of first sources to a plurality of first sinks, each first sink collecting data from one or more of the first sources, and executing, by the one or more processors, a second pass of the data set from a plurality of second sources to a plurality of second sinks, each one of the plurality of first sinks corresponding to one of the plurality of second sources, and each second sink collecting data from one or more of the second sources. Executing the first and second passes causes the data set to be repartitioned such that one or more second sinks collect data that originated from two or more of the first sources.

Multi-pass distributed data shuffle

Methods and systems for configuring nodes in a cloud computing network are described. One example method includes receiving a request from a user to create and configure a node in the cloud computing network, the request including attributes associated with the node; verifying that user is authorized to create and configure the node; in response to verifying that the user is authorized, creating the node; receiving a configuration request from the node identifying configuration actions to perform on the node based on the attributes; in response to receiving the configuration request, sending, to the node, a configuration command corresponding to one or more of the identified configuration actions, wherein the node executes the configuration command upon receipt to perform the identified configuration actions; receiving, from the node, reporting information related; and determining that the configuration command was executed successfully based on the reporting information.

Secure configuration of cloud computing nodes

Methods and systems for configuring nodes in a cloud computing network are described. One example method includes receiving, over a network, a configuration request from a particular node in the cloud computing network, the configuration request including node information for the particular node; verifying that the particular node is authorized for configuration based at least in part on the node information; in response to verifying that the particular node is authorized for configuration, identifying configuration actions to perform on the particular node based at least in part on the node information; and sending, over the network, a configuration command corresponding to one or more of the identified configuration actions to the particular node, wherein the particular node executes the configuration command upon receipt to perform the corresponding configuration actions.
