Consider two row based files.  The first has fields:
   
      A B C
   
  the second has fields:
   
     B D E 
   
  I want to join these files on the key B, to create records of the form:
   
    A B C D E
   
  So B can be thought of as a primary key, and the second file will only 
distinct values of B...i.e. no repeats.
   
  I'm trying to reason through how to do this type of join operation in Hadoop 
but am unsure how to proceed with different "types" of files.  
   
  Does the community have any wisdom to share?
   
  Thanks,
  C G
