Elephant Bird is Twitter's open source library of LZO, Thrift, and/or Protocol Buffer-related Hadoop InputFormats, OutputFormats, Writables, Pig LoadFuncs, Hive SerDe, HBase miscellanea, etc. The majority of these are in production at Twitter running over data every day.
This repo is forked for patching the elephant-bird libs so that it can work on protobuf de/serialization correctly with
- Protobuf 2.5.0
- Hadoop 2.6.0
- Hive 1.2.1
