cogroup

[Michele Bertoni]

Hi I have a question on cogroup

when I cogroup two dataset is there a way to compare each element on the left with each element on the right (inside a group) without collecting one side?

right now I am doing

left.cogroup(right).where(0,1,2).equalTo(0,1,2){
        (leftIterator, rightIterator, out) => {
                val lSet = leftIterator.toSet // <———— toSet
                for(r <- rightIterator)
                        for(l <- lSet)
                                //do something
        }
}

I would like to avoid the toSet


thanks for help

Why do you not use a join? CoGroup seems not to be the right operator.

If you just want to do the pairwise comparison try join().
Join is an inner join and will give you all pairs of elements with matching keys.

For CoGroup, there is no other way than collecting one side in memory.

thanks both for answering,

that’s what i expected

I was using join at first but sadly i had to move from join to cogroup because I need outer join

the alternative to the cogroup is to “complete” the inner join extracting from the original dataset what did not matched in the cogroup by difference but I don’t think it is convenient

Yes, if you need outer join semantics you have to go with CoGroup.

Some members of the Flink community are working on true outer joins for Flink, but I don't know what the progress is.

ok thanks!

then by now i will use it until true outer join is ready
