| Provides the classes necessary to create programs in the high-level Pig Latin |
| language and the infrastructure for evaluating these programs. |
| <p> |
| Pig is a platform for analyzing large data sets and consists of 2 layers: |
| Pig's infrastructure layer consists of a compiler that produces sequences of |
| Map-Reduce programs, for which large-scale parallel implementations already |
| exist (e.g., the Hadoop project). Pig's language layer currently consists of |
| a textual language called Pig Latin for expressing data analysis programs. |
