Is hadoop streaming support actually /working/ in trunk?
Hadoop Streaming access to Avro data? No. Hadoop Streaming is
primarily intended for textual, CSV-style data.
To better integrate languages Avro data into Perl, Python and Ruby
mapreduce programs, we hope to builds something like Hadoop Pipes.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-512
I hope to work on this in the coming weeks.
AVRO-493 only provides Avro data to Java mapreduce programs. The best
documentation for it currently are its unit test source code.
