I need to enable Sequence File with Block Compression data. Below is the table which will be stored as SequenceFile.
* create table lip_data_quality* * ( buyer_id bigint,* * total_chkout bigint,* * total_errpds bigint* * )* * partitioned by (dt string)* * row format delimited fields terminated by '\t'* * stored as sequencefile* * location '/apps/hdmi-technology/b_apdpds/lip-data-quality'* ; And in the above table, I am getting data in Compressed Form like this by enabling these commands- * set mapred.output.compress=true;* * set mapred.output.compression.type=BLOCK;* * set mapred.output.compression.codec=org.apache.hadoop.io.compress.LzoCodec;* So my question is that's all I need to enable BLOCK Compression with Sequence File? Or is there anything else I need to do? I was following this article http://books.google.com/books?id=H3mvcxPeUfwC&pg=PA172&lpg=PA172&dq=Sequence+Files+with+BLOCK+compression&source=bl&ots=pXtKy9-Kuc&sig=IFMfUAcW6XfA2TY8zvBhMyNjfic&hl=en&sa=X&ei=sakaUMAGhNHhBJ7AgMAN&ved=0CHIQ6AEwBg#v=onepage&q=Sequence%20Files%20with%20BLOCK%20compression&f=false Any suggestion will be appreciated.
