| Abstract | Partial aggregation is of great importance in many distributed data-parallel systems. Most notably, it is commonly applied by MapReduce programs to optimize I/O by successively aggregating partially reduced results into a final result, as opposed to aggregating all input records at once. In spite of its importance, programmers currently enable partial aggregation by tediously encoding their reduce functionality into separate reduce and combine functions. This is error prone and often leads to missed optimization opportunities. |
