RAMP: A System for Capturing and Tracing Provenance in MapReduce Workflows
Summary: RAMP extends Hadoop to automatically capture and trace provenance for MapReduce workflows via a wrapper-based approach, preserving parallelism and fault tolerance with minimal user intervention. Demonstrated on a Pig-script Twitter sentiment workflow, it enables drill-down provenance verification of outputs. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
