This is where we need to think of mechanisms that can help us extract required utilization of the infrastructure.

One of the most practical ways to do this is via multi-tenancy of the Hadoop infrastructure. If we look at Hadoop or any storage systems, there are two fundamental actions performed at the storage layer; ...
