README

elephant twin lzo

Elephant Twin is a framework for creating indexes in Hadoop.

Elephant Twin LZO uses ElephantTwin to create LZO block indexes. The resulting indexes can be used by Elephant Twin's BlockIndexedFileInputFormat to avoid scanning LZO blocks that do not contain the sought values of indexed columns. It can also be used by Elephant Twin's IndexedPigLoader to automatically apply filters found in Pig scripts, reducing the number of scanned data when reading LZO-compressed files.

This project is separate from Elephant Twin due to licensing restrictions due to the GPL.

LZO files are expected to be indexed using the indexing tools found in the Hadoop-LZO package.

Building

First, ensure that native LZO libraries are installed.

Use the instructions at https://github.com/twitter/hadoop-lzo for getting this done.

After that, it should be a regular `mvn install`.
