Abstract

The amount of data in today’s world is increasing exponentially. Effectively analyzing Big Data is a very complex task. The MapReduce programming model created by Google in 2004 revolutionized the big-data comput-ing market. Nowadays the model is being used by many for scientific and research analysis as well as for commercial purposes. The MapReduce model however is quite a low-level progamming model and has many limitations. Active research is being undertaken to make models that overcome/remove these limitations. In this paper we have studied some popular data analytic models that redress some of the limitations of MapReduce; namely ASTERIX and Pregel (Giraph) We discuss these models briefly and through the discussion highlight how these models are able to overcome MapReduce’s limitations.
