 cale Graph ProcessingPowergraph: Distributed Graph-parallel Computation on
 \nNatural GraphsGraphchi: Large-scale Graph Computation on just a PC.Abstr
 act\nAnalytics over large graphs is an important and challenging problem d
 ue to the large scale and structure of many graphs. Current approaches to 
 tackle this problem either scale out to multiple machines or scale up on a
  single machine using external memory. We survey existing systems exemplif
 ying these trends. Pregel introduces a general-purpose abstraction based o
 n local vertex computation. PowerGraph refines the computation model to re
 duce overhead and load imbalance. GraphChi rearranges graph structure to p
 rocess them efficiently out-of-core. Finally\, we investigate a third desi
 gn direction: scaling out graph computation using secondary storage. We pr
 esent Chaos and demonstrate its scalability by processing a graph input of
  250 terabytes on 20 commodity servers and provide directions for future r
 esearch.
