Yet Another Resource Negotiator (YARN) is a resource management & job scheduling component in Hadoop distribution framework. It decouples the resource management task from data processing, enabling it to support various data processing tools such as Map Reduce & Spark resulting greater scalability & resource utilization.

Map Reduce is a data processing mechanism where parallel computation of large task is split into smaller sub-tasks and each sub-task is computed on separate nodes within a Hadoop cluster. Map reduce is I/O instensive activity
