What is the difference between an hdfs block and input split?
Answer / Nitish Kapoor
As previously mentioned, an HDFS block is the basic unit of data storage in Hadoop Distributed File System. It has a fixed size (128 MB by default). An Input Split, on the other hand, is a logical division of a file used for processing by MapReduce jobs. It does not have a fixed size and is dynamically created based on the job's requirements.
