Query: Thinking Like a Vertex: a Survey of Vertex-Centric Frameworks for
  Distributed Graph Processing   The vertex-centric programming model is an established computational paradigm
recently incorporated into distributed processing frameworks to address
challenges in large-scale graph processing. Billion-node graphs that exceed the
memory capacity of standard machines are not well-supported by popular Big Data
tools like MapReduce, which are notoriously poor-performing for iterative graph
algorithms such as PageRank. In response, a new type of framework challenges
one to Think Like A Vertex (TLAV) and implements user-defined programs from the
perspective of a vertex rather than a graph. Such an approach improves
locality, demonstrates linear scalability, and provides a natural way to
express and compute many iterative graph algorithms. These frameworks are
simple to program and widely applicable, but, like an operating system, are
composed of several intricate, interdependent components, of which a thorough
understanding is necessary in order to elicit top performance at scale. To this
end, the first comprehensive survey of TLAV frameworks is presented. In this
survey, the vertex-centric approach to graph processing is overviewed, TLAV
frameworks are deconstructed into four main components and respectively
analyzed, and TLAV implementations are reviewed and categorized.
