Cheolsoo Park updated PIG-3059: ------------------------------- Attachment: (was: test_avro_files.tar.gz) > Global configurable minimum 'bad record' thresholds > --------------------------------------------------- > > Key: PIG-3059 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-3059 > Project: Pig > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: impl > Affects Versions: 0.11 > Reporter: Russell Jurney > Assignee: Cheolsoo Park > Fix For: 0.12 > > Attachments: avro_test_files-2.tar.gz, PIG-3059-2.patch, > PIG-3059.patch > > > See PIG-2614. > Pig dies when one record in a LOAD of a billion records fails to parse. This > is almost certainly not the desired behavior. elephant-bird and some other > storage UDFs have minimum thresholds in terms of percent and count that must > be exceeded before a job will fail outright. > We need these limits to be configurable for Pig, globally. I've come to > realize what a major problem Pig's crashing on bad records is for new Pig > users. I believe this feature can greatly improve Pig. > An example of a config would look like: > pig.storage.bad.record.threshold=0.01 > pig.storage.bad.record.min=100 > A thorough discussion of this issue is available here: > http://www.quora.com/Big-Data/In-Big-Data-ETL-how-many-records-are-an-acceptable-loss -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
