Thanks... Ill tell this to my Project Manager and let u know what he says...

Can u tell me the advantages of MapReduce.... 

"The time is saved because we use the key/value pairs... So key/value pairs
is the key factor for making MapReduce to be very advantageous ans
popular....."  This is what i think......Am i right?

Regards,
Jaya



Technically map reduce requires key/value pairs.  Hadoop's implementation
also requires them.  So if you want to run a map reduce job, you will need
to fit your data to key/value pairs.  Of course, as I have shown, you can
just use a meaningless key or value, but they are still required.
