Hello, Could someone please help me to understand these configuration parameters in depth.
mapred.map.tasks and mapred.reduce.tasks It is mentioned that default value of these parameters is 2 and 1. *What does it mean?* Does it mean 2 maps and 1 reduce per node. Does it mean 2 maps and 1 reduce in total (for the cluster). Or Does it mean 2 maps and 1 reduce per Job. Can we change maps and reduce for default example Jobs such as Wordcount etc. too? At the same time, I believe that total number of maps are dependent upon input data size? Please help me understand these two parameters clearly.
