Bill Graham commented on PIG-1914:
----------------------------------
+1 a Map solution that allows for unknown json key/values to be handled. We
often run jobs that create summaries of counts of all json keys, many of which
are either unknown or not reliably implied by reading a random row.
If instead a json loader is contributed that returns Tuples from either a
pre-difined schema or via introspection, I suggest it's named in a way that
implies this. Multiple implementations can be supported.
