What is a Combiner?

Answer Posted / Balram Sarkar

A Combiner in Hadoop is an optional class used in MapReduce jobs that helps to reduce the amount of data shuffled between the map and reduce tasks. It performs a partial reduction on the map output, which can lead to performance improvements by reducing the amount of data that needs to be processed in the reduce phase.
