Introducing the MapReduce function

The MapReduce function is an aggregate function that consists of two functions: Map and Reduce. As the name would suggest, the map is always performed before the reduce.

The map function takes data and breaks it down into tuples (key/value pairs) for each element in the dataset
The reduce function then takes the result of the map function and simply reduces it in to a smaller set of tuples by merging all values with the same key.

Map is used to deal with "embarassingly parallel problems" where a task can be broken down into subtasks that can then be ran simultaneously without affecting each other. Instead of just processing elements one by one, all elements can all be dealt with at the same time in parallel. This allows for massively reduced processing times as well as large scalability across multiple servers, making it an attractive solution to handling Big Data.

We will be using Javascript here through the use of Code. Also note that the Mongo shell uses the camelCase mapReduce() whereas PyMongo uses the Python naming scheme map_reduce()

For this example MapReduce takes the form:

db.<collection>.map_reduce(
    map=<function>,
    reduce=<function>,
    out=<collection>
)
This example returns the population of all the continents.

In the map stage, emit(k,v) selects the fields to to turn into tuples, where k is the key and v is the value. The key will be the continents and the values will be the populations.
The reduce will sum all the values associated with each key. Finally the out specifies that the output is to be inline rather than a collection, allowing it to printed it to screen.

from bson.code import Code
pp.pprint(
    db.world.map_reduce(
        map=Code("function(){emit(this.continent, this.population)}"), 
        reduce=Code("""function(key, values){
                           return Array.sum(values)
                       }
                    """),
        out={"inline":1},
    )
)
query can be used to filter the input documents to map.

Find the GDP for each continent, but only include data from countries that start with the letter A or B.

from bson.code import Code
temp = db.world.map_reduce(
        query={"name": {"$regex":"^(A|B)"}},
        map=Code("function(){emit(this.continent, this.gdp)}"), 
        reduce=Code("""function(key, values){
                           return Array.sum(values)
                      }
                   """),
        out={"inline":1},
)

pp.pprint(
   temp["results"]
)

from bson.code import Code;temp = db.world.map_reduce(query={"name": {"$regex":"^(A|B)"}},map=Code("function(){emit(this.continent, this.gdp)}"),reduce=Code("function(key, values){return Array.sum(values)}"),out={"inline":1});import operator;pp.pprint(temp["results"])


scope takes in a document:{} and lets you create global variables.

It's syntax is: scope={}.

Using scope, list all the countries with a higher population than Mexico.

mexico_data = db.world.find_one({"name":"Mexico"})
pp.pprint(mexico_data)

from bson.code import Code
temp = db.world.map_reduce(
        scope = {"MEXICO":mexico_data},
        map = Code("""function(){
                         if (this.population > MEXICO.population) emit(this.name, this.population)
                      }
                   """), 
        reduce=Code("function(key, values){return values}"),
        out={"inline":1},
)
pp.pprint(
   temp["results"]
)

mexico_data = db.world.find_one({"name":"Mexico"}); pp.pprint(mexico_data); from bson.code import Code; temp = db.world.map_reduce( scope={"MEXICO":mexico_data}, map=Code("function(){if (this.population > MEXICO.population) emit(this.name, this.population)}"), reduce=Code("function(key, values){return values}"), out={"inline":1});pp.pprint(temp['results'])

sort and limit

Sort allows us to sort the input documents that are passed to map
Limit is self explanatory and also applies to the input documents that are passed to map

Get the five countries with the highest GDPs

from bson.code import Code
temp = db.world.map_reduce(
        query={"gdp":{"$ne":None}},
        sort={"gdp":-1},
        limit=5,
        map=Code("function(){emit(this.name, this.gdp)}"), 
        reduce=Code("function(key, values){return values}"),
        out={"inline":1},
)

pp.pprint(
   temp["results"]
)

from bson.code import Code; temp = db.world.map_reduce( query={"gdp":{"$ne":None}}, sort={"gdp":-1}, limit=5, map=Code("function(){emit(this.name, this.gdp)}"), reduce=Code("function(key, values){return values}"), out={"inline":1}, );pp.pprint(temp["results"])

finalize is an optional additional step that allows you to modify the data produce by reduce

Show the top 15 countries by population, then show their population as a percentage of Mexico's population.

mexico_data = db.world.find_one({"name":"Mexico"})

from bson.code import Code
temp = db.world.map_reduce(
        scope = {"MEXICO":mexico_data},
        query={"population":{"$ne":None}},
        sort={"population":-1},
        limit=15,
        map=Code("function(){emit(this.name, this.population)}"), 
        reduce=Code("function(key, values){return values}"),
        out={"inline":1},
        finalize=Code("""function(key, values){
                             return 100*(values/MEXICO.population)+"%"
                         }
                      """)
)

pp.pprint(
   temp["results"]
)

mexico_data = db.world.find_one({"name":"Mexico"});from bson.code import Code; temp = db.world.map_reduce( scope = {"MEXICO":mexico_data}, query={"population":{"$ne":None}}, sort={"population":-1}, limit=15, map=Code("function(){emit(this.name, this.population)}"), reduce=Code("function(key, values){return values}"), out={"inline":1}, finalize=Code("""function(key, values){return 100*(values/MEXICO.population)+"%"} """) );pp.pprint(temp["results"] );

Rounding can also be performed by using JavaScript.

Show the top 15 countries by population, then show their population as a whole number percentage of Mexico's population.

mexico_data = db.world.find_one({"name":"Mexico"})

from bson.code import Code
temp = db.world.map_reduce(
        scope = {"MEXICO":mexico_data},
        query={"population":{"$ne":None}},
        sort={"population":-1},
        limit=15,
        map=Code("function(){emit(this.name, this.population)}"), 
        reduce=Code("function(key, values){return values}"),
        out={"inline":1},
        finalize=Code("""function(key, values){
                             return Math.round(100*(values/MEXICO.population))+"%"
                         }
                      """)
)

pp.pprint(
   temp["results"]
)

mexico_data = db.world.find_one({"name":"Mexico"});from bson.code import Code;temp=db.world.map_reduce(scope ={"MEXICO":mexico_data},query={"population":{"$ne":None}},sort={"population":-1},limit=15,map=Code("function(){emit(this.name,this.population)}"),reduce=Code("function(key, values){return values}"), out={"inline":1},finalize=Code("function(key,values){return Math.round(100*(values/MEXICO.population))+'%'}"));pp.pprint(temp["results"])
