You need to create a job that does frequency analysis on input data. You will do this by writing a Mapper that uses TextInputFormat and splits each value (a line of text from an input file) into individual characters. For each one of these characters, you will emit the character as a key and an InputWritable as the value. As this will produce proportionally more intermediate data than input data, which two resources should you expect to be bottlenecks?

You are developing a MapReduce job for sales reporting. The mapper will process input keys representing the year (IntWritable) and input values representing product indentifies (Text).
Indentify what determines the data types used by the Mapper for a given job.

You have written a Mapper which invokes the following five calls to the OutputColletor.collect method:
output.collect (new Text ("Apple"), new Text ("Red") ) ; output.collect (new Text ("Banana"), new Text ("Yellow") ) ; output.collect (new Text ("Apple"), new Text ("Yellow") ) ; output.collect (new Text ("Cherry"), new Text ("Red") ) ; output.collect (new Text ("Apple"), new Text ("Green") ) ; How many times will the Reducer's reduce method be invoked?

Which one of the following files is required in every Oozie Workflow application?

Indentify which best defines a SequenceFile?

You need to perform statistical analysis in your MapReduce job and would like to call methods in the Apache Commons Math library, which is distributed as a 1.3 megabyte Java archive (JAR) file. Which is the best way to make this library available to your MapReducer job at runtime?
