Zheng Shao updated HIVE-223: ---------------------------- Resolution: Fixed Fix Version/s: 0.3.0 Release Note: HIVE-223. Single map-reduce group-by using map-side aggregation. (Namit Jain via zshao) Hadoop Flags: [Reviewed] Status: Resolved (was: Patch Available) Committed revision 751166. Thanks Namit! > when using map-side aggregates - perform single map-reduce group-by > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-223 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-223 > Project: Hadoop Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Query Processor > Reporter: Joydeep Sen Sarma > Assignee: Namit Jain > Fix For: 0.3.0 > > Attachments: 223.2.txt, 223.3.txt, 223.patch1.txt, hive.223.4.patch, > patch.txt > > > today even when we do map side aggregates - we do multiple map-reduce jobs. > however - the reason for doing multiple map-reduce group-bys (for single > group-bys) was the fear of skews. When we are doing map side aggregates - > skews should not exist for the most part. There can be two reason for skews: > - large number of entries for a single grouping set - map side aggregates > should take care of this > - badness in hash function that sends too much stuff to one reducer - we > should be able to take care of this by having good hash functions (and prime > number reducer counts) > So i think we should be able to do a single stage map-reduce when doing > map-side aggregates. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
