Hi all,

Is there a way to suppress  key or value output from reducer?

I dont want to output pair. I just need record that will be used for the
next job.

Thanks
Regards.
Serge

Hi Serge,

Have a look at the documentation at http://avro.apache.org/docs/1.6.1/api/java/org/apache/avro/mapred/package-summary.html
Specifically, the following two scenarios:

1) "For jobs whose input and output are Avro data files:"
2) "For jobs whose input is non-Avro data file and which use a non-Avro Mapper, but whose reducer is an AvroReducer and whose output is an Avro data file:"

Regards,
