Processing compressed files in HadoopLeonardo Urbina 2012-02-08, 17:39
Hello everyone,
I run a daily job that takes files in a variety of different formats and
process them using several custom InputFormats which are specified using
MultipleInputs. The results get aggregated into a single SequenceFile.
Furthermore this SequenceFile is used as part of the input for the next
day's job. I run all of this in Amazon's EMR. Now, I would like to be able
to use compression in order to save on storage, however after looking
around online I have hit some dead ends:
1) I would like to compress my input files, and Hadoop gives me three
choices: gzip, bzip2 and LZO. I want to steer away from gzip and bzip2 as
they cannot be made splittable. LZO on the other hand can be indexed,
however as far as I could tell, I would be forced to use LzoTextInputFormat
in order to get Hadoop to properly decompress and read the files. Most of
my input cannot use TextInputFormat (my inputs include multi-line records,
XML files, among other things). My question is, is it possible to use LZO
with custom InputFormats?
2) I am also interested in compressing the output SequenceFile. I know this
can be done by setting
FileOutputFormat.setCompressOutput(conf, true)
If I were using TextOutputFormat, the output would be a gzipped text file.
However, being a SequenceFile it seems to be internally compressed and the
compression scheme is not immediately apparent to me. Is it possible to
specify LZO as the compression? Also, since I will be using the output as
part of the next input, do I need to index the output as a separate task?
And finally, when I specify the input format for the next day (and this
goes back to my first question), what InputFormat should I specify? I
haven't been able to find something like LzoSequenceInputFormat or anything
of the like.
Am I missing something? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Best,
-Leo

Re: Processing compressed files in Hadoopbejoy.hadoop@... 2012-02-08, 17:53
Hi Leo
Irrespective of your your output/input format in your mapreduce job you can get compressed output by setting the following parameters
Mapred.output.compress=true
Mapred.output.compression.codec=yourCompressionCodec.class
LZO is better I guess.
Now if you want to index LZO it is straight forward, n you need to enable
Io.compression.codec= <append the codec class>
If you have these enabled just use any available InputFormat like you'd do with a uncompressed file. No specific input format required for your MR jobs on compressed data.
Hope it helps!..

Leo, splittable bzip is available
...in versions > 0.21 - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4012
...or as a patch for 1.0.0, to be included in 1.1.0 - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7823
There is a 48-bit signature in the bzip header, and they search for this at all bit alignments.
It's not fast, but it's there.

Hi Leo
You can index the LZO files as
//Run theLZO indexer on files in hdfs
LzoIndexer indexer = new LzoIndexer(fs.getConf());
indexer.index(filePath);

Hi Bejoy,
Thanks for your response. I know how to index Lzo files, however I am
curious on whether I can still use my custom InputFormats to process the
compressed LZO files or if I have to implement new ones to handle this
case.

It should work with your custom Input Formats as well. Add the Lzo codec class to io.compression.codecs and try.

Hi Bejoy,
Thanks for your response. I know how to index Lzo files, however I am
curious on whether I can still use my custom InputFormats to process the
compressed LZO files or if I have to implement new ones to handle this
case.
