Doug Cutting commented on MAPREDUCE-1849: ----------------------------------------- I think this is better done as a separate project. Our goal in the MapReduce project should be to provide a low-level execution engine for higher-level APIs like this. Wherever possible we should strive to reduce the amount of user-level code in the base mapreduce system. This permits user-code to be versioned independently from the critical fault-tolerant base system. The base system should focus on reliability and performance, not on high-level features. > Implement a FlumeJava-like library for operations over parallel collections > using Hadoop MapReduce > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-1849 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-1849 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Jeff Hammerbacher > > The API used internally at Google is described in great detail at > http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1806596.1806638. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
