Question

Which statements are true?

(i) Facebook’s engineering article Moving an Elephant, published on 27 July 2011, reports that in 2010 Facebook had the world’s largest Hadoop cluster, with over 20 PB of storage.

(ii) In Hadoop 2.x, YARN separates cluster resource management from application-specific execution coordination; YARN itself is not a live-stream processing engine.

The correct answer is

Both (i) and (ii)

Both (i) and (ii) are true. The Facebook claim is explicitly historical and attributed to the named engineering report, rather than asserted as a current ranking. Apache’s Hadoop 2.x documentation assigns global resource allocation to the ResourceManager and application-specific coordination to the ApplicationMaster. Stream-processing work requires an appropriate processing framework; YARN supplies resource management.
