Abstract
Provided are techniques for computing a task result. A processing data set of records is created, wherein each of the records contains data specific to a sub-task from a set of actual sub-tasks and contains a reference to data shared by the set of actual sub-tasks, and wherein a number of the records is equivalent to a number of the actual sub-tasks in the set of actual sub-tasks. With each mapper in a set of mappers, one of the records of the processing data set is received and an assigned sub-task is executed using the received one of the records to generate output. With a single reducer, the output from each mapper in the set of mappers is reduced to determine a task result.
