A prototype called Whiz cleanly separates computation from intermediate data and adds a data service that collects runtime stats, applies execution and modification predicates, and performs late binding of task parallelism and placement. Built by modifying Tez/YARN and evaluated on a 50-node cluster with TPC-DS queries, PageRank, and streaming workloads, it reports 1.3–2x faster job completion and ~1.4x better cluster efficiency by reducing skew, improving locality, and avoiding hotspots.
