Alessio Arleo commented on GIRAPH-1000:
---------------------------------------
Thank you very much Lukas.
Anyway, as you said, this is something not ideal and closely related to the
single job implementation.
What I meant was a complete integration just like in Hadoop: the user develops
a job and specifies to the Runner to use one or more output formats. Than the
computation just as its
I would really enjoy to add this feature myself, I would anyway appreciate some
help. Unfortunately I do not have access to much documentation on Giraph
technical details, so pointing me to such documentation would speed up the
process considerably.
> Multi Output support

> Key: GIRAPH-1000
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GIRAPH-1000
> Project: Giraph
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: bsp, conf and scripts, graph
> Affects Versions: 1.0.0, 1.1.0, 1.2.0-SNAPSHOT
> Reporter: Alessio Arleo

> Hadoop natively supports multiple outputs. The objective is to extend Giraph
> to support multiple output formats during a single giraph run.
> According to the official Hadoop apidocs*, to take advantage of multiple
> outputs the the pattern is the following:
> - Modify the job submission
> - Modify the reducer class to write on the declared different outputs
> Since Giraph jobs are executed as mappers, probably this approach (or at
> least its second part) is not feasible, so further investigation is necessary.
