Description

The 4MC (4 More Compression) is a library for hadoop providing a new splittable compressed file format (4mc) which lets you leverage the power of LZ4 and ZSTD algorithms.
It differs from other compressed file formats in a way that the output files can be read using HIVE partitioning - thus queries can be fast and reads from client applications can be very pointed to small compressed files stored on GCS.
