APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR ACCELERATING HARDWARE COMPRESSION BASED ON HADOOP

摘要

The present invention relates to a Hadoop-based hardware compression and acceleration apparatus. The present invention complements the performance of a low power CPU by performing compression and decompression processes performed by Hadoop middleware in a low power Hadoop storage appliance through hardware. To this end, the Hadoop-based hardware compression accelerating apparatus according to the present invention performs pre-registration and search with an input buffer for receiving a data block to be compressed or decompressed, and compresses the data block through a window And a control module for controlling the input buffer, the dictionary module, and the output buffer based on a dictionary module, an output buffer for outputting the result of performing the compression, and Hadoop storage appliance information.
