Renaming Part Files in Hadoop Map Reduce

Question

I have tried to use the MultipleOutputs class as per the example in page http://hadoop.apache.org/docs/mapreduce/r0.21.0/api/index.html?org/apache/hadoop/mapred

Answer 1

This is all you need to do in the Driver class to change the basename of the output file: job.getConfiguration().set("mapreduce.output.basename", "text"); So this will result in your files being called "text-r-00000".
