Abstract
A shuffler receives information associated with partition segments of map task outputs and a pipeline policy for a job running on a computing device. The shuffler transmits to an operating system of the computing device a request to lock partition segments of the map task outputs and transmits an advisement to keep or load partition segments of map task outputs in the memory of the computing device. The shuffler creates a pipeline based on the pipeline policy, wherein the pipeline includes partition segments locked in the memory and partition segments advised to keep or load in the memory, of the computing device for the job, and the shuffler selects the partition segments locked in the memory, followed by partition segments advised to keep or load in the memory, as a preferential order of partition segments to shuffle.
