Hi Mirko,
Thanks for the reply.

Lets assume i have a record every 1 second for every given entity.

entity_id | timestamp | data

1 , 2014-01-01 12:13:01 - i want this
..some more for different entity
1 , 2014-01-01 12:13:02
1 , 2014-01-01 12:13:03
1 , 2014-01-01 12:13:04
1 , 2014-01-01 12:13:05
........
1 , 2014-01-01 12:23:01 - I want this
1 , 2014-01-01 12:23:02

The problem is that in reality this is not coming sorted by entity_id , timestamp
so i can't filter in the mapper .
The mapper will get different entity_id's and based on the input split.

Hi Georgi,

I would already emit the new time stamp (with resolution 10 min) in the mapper. This allows you to (pre)aggregate the data already in the mapper and you have less traffic during the shuffle & sort stage. Changing the resolution means you have to aggregate the individual entities or do you still need all individual entities and just want to translate the timestamp to another resolution (5s => 10 min)?

Cheers,

    Hello,
    I have time related data like this :
    entity_id, timestamp , data

    The resolution of the data is something like 5 seconds.
    I want to extract the data with 10 minutes resolution.

    So what i can do is :
    Just emit everything in the mapper as data is not sorted there .
    Emit only every 10 minutes from reducer. The reducer is receiving
    data sorted by entity_id,timestamp pair (secondary sorting)

    This will work fine, but it will take forever, since i have to
    process TB's of data.
    Also the data emitted to the reducer will be huge( as i am not
    filtering in map phase at all) and the number of reducers is much
    smaller than the number of mappers.

    Are there any better ideas how to do this ?

    Georgi
