--------------------------------------
any progress on this ticket, or there is a better way to do it now?

> Key: MAPREDUCE-3520
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-3520
> Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: mrv2
> Affects Versions: 0.24.0
> Reporter: Robert Joseph Evans
>
> Some people on the mailing lists have requested having read access in
> reducers to counters that were set by mappers. I propose that we provide a
> new interface for doing this. The counter data in addition to being set
> periodically to the Application Master would be put into the intermediate
> output of the mapper for each reducer and be specially marked as such. When
> the reducers fetch that data they can combine it together and provide a read
> only interface to it.
> This allows users to potentially optimize their code on the reducer side if
> they know some special metadata before hand.
