Hi,
I'm planning to use Fume in order to stream data from a local client
machine into HDFS running on a cloud environment.
Is there a way to start a mapper already on an incomplete file? As I
know a file in HDFS has to be closed first before a mapper can start.
Is this true?
Any possible idea for a solution of this problem?
Or do I have to write smaller chunks of my big input file and create
multiple files in HDFS and start a separate map task on each file once
it has been closed?
Best Regards,
Romeo
