Writing to multiple output channels

[Sunil Jagadish]

Hi,

I have a mapper which needs to write output into two different kinds of
files (output.collect()).
For my purpose, I do not need any reducers.

public void map(IntWritable key, FeatureVectorWritable value
                        , OutputCollector<Text, NullWritable> output,
Reporter reporter)
                throws IOException
{
   // some processing....
   output.collect(new Text(builder.toString()), NullWritable.get());
   // Ideally I want to do another:
      // output.collect(new Text(builder.toString()), NullWritable.get());
      // but it will all land up in the same part-xxxxx file.
}


Any ideas on what is the right way of implementing such a thing?

Thanks in advance.
