Can you explain record reader?..

Answer / Jyoti Shrivastava

RecordReader is an input format-specific class in Hadoop that reads input data and generates key-value pairs for the Mapper. It's responsible for splitting the input file into InputSplits, reading each split, and returning the corresponding key-value pairs. Different input formats may have different implementations of RecordReader.
