Jakob Odersky commented on SPARK-12958: --------------------------------------- I agree that it's very specific, maybe it would make sense to include a more generic version of {{MapAccumulator}}. Something like MapAccumulator[A, B], where B has to have an implicit AccumulatorParam[B] itself? > Map accumulator in spark > ------------------------ > > Key: SPARK-12958 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-12958 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Wish > Components: Spark Core > Reporter: Souri > Priority: Minor > > Spark by default supports accumulators of Int,Long,Double,Float. > It would be good if we can have a Map accumulator where each executor can > just add key->value pairs and driver can have access to the aggregated value > for each key in the map. > In this way, it would also be easier to use accumulators for various metrics. > We can define metrics at runtime as the map can take any string key. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
