Amazon EMR is a managed cluster platform that simplifies running big data frameworks (such as Apache Hadoop and Apache Spark) on AWS to process and analyze vast amounts of data.

By using these frameworks and related open-source projects (such as Apache Hive and Apache Pig), you can:

  • Process data for analytics purposes and business intelligence workloads.
  • Use Amazon EMR to transform and move large amounts of data into and out of other AWS data stores and databases. For example, Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) and Amazon DynamoDB.

Use the AWS public cloud integration to discover and collect metrics against the AWS service.

aws_elasticmapreduce_IsIdle

Indicates that a cluster is no longer performing work, but is still alive and accruing charges. Set to 1 if no tasks and jobs are running; set to 0 otherwise.

HDFSUtilizationPercentAverage
aws_elasticmapreduce_HDFSBytesRead

Number of bytes read from HDFS.
HDFSBytesReadBytes ReadAverage
aws_elasticmapreduce_HDFSBytesWritten

Number of bytes written to HDFS.
HDFSBytesWrittenBytes WrittenAverage
aws_elasticmapreduce_LiveDataNodes

Percentage of data nodes that are receiving work from Hadoop.
LiveDataNodesPercentAverage
aws_elasticmapreduce_MRTotalNodes

Number of nodes presently available to MapReduce jobs.
MRTotalNodesCountAverage
aws_elasticmapreduce_MRActiveNodes

Number of nodes presently running MapReduce tasks or jobs.

Number of blocks in which HDFS has no replicas. These might be corrupt blocks.
MissingBlocksCountAverage
aws_elasticmapreduce_TotalLoad

Total number of concurrent data transfers.
TotalLoadCountAverage
aws_elasticmapreduce_MemoryTotalMB

Total amount of memory in the cluster.
