Online aggregation and continuous query support

                 Key: MAPREDUCE-1211
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-1211
             Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: task
            Reporter: Tyson Condie
            Priority: Minor


The purpose of this post is to propose a modified MapReduce architecture that allows data to be pipelined between operators. This extends the MapReduce programming model beyond batch processing, and can reduce completion times and improve system utilization for batch jobs as well. We have built a modified version of the Hadoop MapReduce framework that supports online aggregation, which allows users to see "early returns" from a job as it is being computed. Our Hadoop Online Prototype (HOP) also supports continuous queries, which enable MapReduce programs to be written for applications such as event monitoring and stream processing. HOP retains the fault tolerance properties of Hadoop, and can run unmodified user-defined MapReduce programs.

For more information on the HOP design, please see our technical report.
