Mastering flat_map in Python with List Comprehension

Image
Introduction In Python, when working with nested lists or iterables, one common challenge is flattening them into a single list while applying transformations. Many programming languages provide a built-in flatMap function, but Python does not have an explicit flat_map method. However, Python’s powerful list comprehensions offer an elegant way to achieve the same functionality. This article examines implementation behavior using Python’s list comprehensions and other methods. What is flat_map ? Functional programming  flatMap is a combination of map and flatten . It transforms the collection's element and flattens the resulting nested structure into a single sequence. For example, given a list of lists, flat_map applies a function to each sublist and returns a single flattened list. Example in a Functional Programming Language: List(List(1, 2), List(3, 4)).flatMap(x => x.map(_ * 2)) // Output: List(2, 4, 6, 8) Implementing flat_map in Python Using List Comprehension Python’...

5 HBase Vs. RDBMS Top Functional Differences

Here're the differences between RDBMS and HBase. HBase in the Big data context has a lot of benefits over RDBMS. The listed differences below make it understandable why HBASE is popular in Hadoop (or Bigdata) platform. 5 HBase Vs. RDBMS Top Functional Differences Here're the differences unlock now. Random Accessing HBase handles a large amount of data that is store in a distributed manner in the column-oriented format while RDBMS is systematic storage of a database that cannot support a random manner for accessing the database. Database Rules RDBMS strictly follows Codd's 12 rules with fixed schemas and row-oriented manner of database and also follows ACID properties. HBase follows BASE properties and implements complex queries. Secondary indexes, complex inner and outer joins, count, sum, sort, group, and data of page and table can easily be accessible by RDBMS. Storage From small to medium storage application there is the use of RDBMS that provides the solution with MySQ...

HBASE: Top Features in Storing Big data

Image
In this post explained top features added in HBase to handle the data. The Java implementation of Google's Big Table you can call it as HBASE.  In HBase, the data store as two parts. Row Key : 00001 Column : (Column Qualifier:Version:Value) Features of HBASE HBase data stores consist of one or more tables, which are indexed by row keys. Data is stored in rows with columns, and rows can have multiple versions. By default, data versioning for rows is implemented with time stamps. Columns are grouped into column families, which must be defined upfront during table creation. Column families are stored together on disk, which is why HBase is referred to as a column-oriented datastore New features of HBASE check now In addition... HBase is a distributed data store, which leverages a network-attached cluster of low-cost commodity servers to store and persist data. HBase architecture is a little trick to know. Region Servers... RegionServers are the software p...

5 Essential features of HBASE Storage Architecture

Many analytics prgrammers have confusion about HBASE. The question is if we have HDFS, then why we need HBASE. This post covers how HBASE and HDFS are related in HADOOP big data framework. HBase is a distributed, versioned, column-oriented, multidimensional storage system, designed for high performance and high availability. To be able to successfully leverage HBase, you first must understand how it is implemented and how it works. A region server's implementation can have: HBase is an open source implementation of Google's BigTable architecture. Similar to traditional relational database management systems (RDBMSs), data in HBase is organized in tables. Unlike RDBMSs, however, HBase supports a very loose schema definition, and does not provide any joins, query language, or SQL. Although HBase does not support real-time joins and queries, batch joins and/or queries via MapReduce can be easily implemented. In fact, they are well-supported by higher-level s...
