Use PIG it has specific directives for in memory joins of small
data sets.  The whole thing might require a half a dozen lines
of code.

Hi,

I am trying to do some work with in memory Join Map Reduce implementation,

it can be summarized as a a join between two data set, R and S, one of
them is too large to fit into memory, the other one can fit into memory
reasonably well,
(size of R << size of S). The typical implementation
1) distributes or broadcasts R to all map tasks (each mapper loads R in
memory, hashed by join key).
2) map (stream) over S, divide S into datums and use it as input to each
map task,
3) within each map task, for every tuple in S, look up join key in R
4) reduce computation is trivial

If anyone could point me to a good implementation that I could use a
reference, that would be great.
I do plan to write my own implementation, but it would be helpful to
take a look to see if there are established implementation out there,

Thanks
Yunming
