Understanding Pregel

As I said in my previous post, I am interacting a lot with Apache Giraph. Before beginning with Giraph, I needed to understand the concept behind it. Giraph is an open-source implementation of the Pregel model, proposed by Google in 2010.

What is Pregel?

A model or framework designed for processing large-scale graphs.
How large can these large-scale graphs be? Well, let's say billions is a good number :)

What makes Pregel special?

Or shall I ask: Why not MapReduce (M/R)?

And same question goes again: What am I actually doing?

One day...

I will start writing :)
Not today!

However, write down one of my favorite sayings:

“Tell me and I'll forget; show me and I may remember; involve me and I'll understand.”
