Distributed GraphLab: A Framework for Machine Learning and Data Mining in the Cloud

Summary: Distributed GraphLab extends graph-parallel ML/DM to the cloud with strong data consistency. Introduces graph-based pipelined locking and data versioning to reduce network latency, adds Chandy-Lamport snapshot fault tolerance, and demonstrates 1–2 orders of magnitude speedups over Hadoop on EC2.
