13. The ______________ class defines a configuration parameter named LINES_PER_MAP that controls how the input file is split.
Correct Answer is : NLineInputFormat
14. The ________ class allows developers to exercise precise control over how data is partitioned, sorted, and grouped by the underlying execution engine.
Correct Answer is : GroupingOptions
15. ________ is a programming model designed for processing large volumes of data in parallel by dividing the work into a set of independent tasks.
Correct Answer is : MapReduce
16. Point out the correct statement :
Correct Answer is : Data locality means movement of algorithm to the data instead of data to algorithm
17. The daemons associated with the MapReduce phase are ________ and task-trackers.
Correct Answer is : job-tracker
