Logical Optimizer: Unique sort rule ----------------------------------- Key: PIG-1326 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-1326 Project: Pig Issue Type: New Feature Components: impl Affects Versions: 0.6.0 Reporter: Daniel Dai Assignee: Daniel Dai
We do not have unique sort in Pig Latin. If user want to do a unique sort, they have to do a distinct followed by a sort. This is two map-reduce jobs. However, we can identify some patterns in the script. If the user intend to do a unique sort, we can merge two map-reduce jobs into one. This rule need physical layer support to deal with unique sort. Example: B = distinct A; C = sort B by *; => C = uniq sort A by *; -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
