Aggregate Framework should allow usage of MultipleOutputFormat --------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-3669 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-3669 Project: Hadoop Core Issue Type: Improvement Affects Versions: 0.17.0 Reporter: Ankur Currently the output format is hard-coded to be TextOutputFormat in ValueAggregatorJob responsible for running aggregation jobs using user-defined value aggregator descriptors. This prevents the application writer from specifying an alternate output format. A good use case from an application's perspective is to have a sub-type of MultipleOutputFormat set as output format which takes care of redirecting (key, value) to different files based on type information encoded in them. Applications can extend MultipleTextOutputFormat and define there own multiple output format but they still can't hook it into value aggregator framework. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
