> Fragmented replicated join has a few limitations:
>  - One of the tables needs to be loaded into memory
>  - Join is limited to two tables
> Skewed join partitions the table and joins the records in the reduce phase. It computes a histogram of the key space to account for skewing in the input records. Further, it adjusts the number of reducers depending on the key distribution.
> We need to implement the skewed join in pig.
