Is it better to use the mapred or the mapreduce package to create a Hadoop Job?
问题 To create MapReduce jobs you can either use the old org.apache.hadoop.mapred package or the newer org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce package for Mappers and Reducers, Jobs ... The first one had been marked as deprecated but this got reverted meanwhile. Now I wonder whether it is better to use the old mapred package or the new mapreduce package to create a job and why. Or is it just dependent on whether you need stuff like the MultipleTextOutputFormat which is only available in the old mapred package
