Hands-on exercises
- Note: Input for exercises: s3://mda2014/input/wikipedia.txt
- Exercise 0: WordCount
- Run the basic WordCount example on your local machine and AWS
- Follow the instructions to create your Amazon Elastic MapReduce (EMR) cluster
- Instructions to run WordCount on your local machine and EMR cluster will be given in class
- Note: You don't have to submit code and results for this exercise.
- Exercise 1: Fixed-Length WordCount
- For this exercise, you will only count words with 5 characters
- Output: Key is the word, and value is the number of times the word appears in the input.
- Exercise 2: InitialCount
- Count the number of words based on their initial (first character), i.e., count the number of words per initial
- The letter case should not be taken into account. For example, Apple and apple will be both counted for initial A
- Output: Key is the initial (A to Z in UPPERCASE), and value is the number of words having that initial (in either uppercase or lowercase).
- Exercise 3: Top-K WordCount
- Output the top 100 most frequent 7-character words, in descending order of frequency
- Output: Key is the word, and value is the number of times the word appears in the input.
