The conversation between human and AI assistant.
I cannot fully understand how Hadoop Yarn and Apache Spark work, and I am not familiar with terms like resource manager, cluster manager, and so on. Should I first study distributed systems? If so, what are some recommended resources?
No, I haven't. Can you give me a brief overview of what I can expect to learn from these resources?
The "Distributed Systems" book covers the fundamental concepts and design principles related to distributed systems. It includes topics such as communication, replication, consistency, fault tolerance, and more. The online course offered by Stanford covers a similar range of topics, with a focus on modern distributed systems architecture and implementation. You'll learn about factors that influence system performance, algorithms for task coordination, and more.
