Improving the performance of query processing using proposed resilient distributed processing technique

Abstract

Purpose

Resilient distributed processing technique (RDPT), in which mapper and reducer are simplified with the Spark contexts and support distributed parallel query processing.

Design/methodology/approach

The proposed work is implemented with Pig Latin with Spark contexts to develop query processing in a distributed environment.

Findings

Query processing in Hadoop influences the distributed processing with the MapReduce model. MapReduce caters to the works on different nodes with the implementation of complex mappers and reducers. Its results are valid for some extent size of the data.

Originality/value

Pig supports the required parallel processing framework with the following constructs during the processing of queries: FOREACH; FLATTEN; COGROUP.
