| title: Accumulo Storage with Pig |
| --- |
| <p> <a href="http://accumulo.apache.org">Apache Accumulo</a> is a sorted, distributed, key-value store built using <a |
| href="http://hadoop.apache.org">Apache Hadoop</a> and <a href="http://zookeeper.apache.org">Apache ZooKeeper</a>. <a |
| href="http://pig.apache.org">Apache Pig</a> is a platform for analyzing large data sets using a high-level expression |
| language, <em>Pig Latin</em>. This project intends to provide the mechanisms for storage and retrieval of data stored in |
| Accumulo using Pig's expression language </p> |
| |
| <p> This work was initially based on a contribution by Jason Trost to Apache Accumulo, but has been recently revitalized |
| to ensure compatibility with all stable versions of Apache Accumulo as well as supporting as much of Pig Latin's |
| functionality as efficiently as possible. Many decisions were influenced by the functionality that <em>HBaseStorage</em> |
| that currently exists in Pig.</p> |
