+ <para>Apache Pig is a platform for analyzing large data sets
+ that consists of a high-level language for expressing data
+ analysis programs, coupled with infrastructure for evaluating
+ these programs. The salient property of Pig programs is that
+ their structure is amenable to substantial parallelization,
+ which in turns enables them to handle very large data sets. At
+ the present time, Pig's infrastructure layer consists of a
+ compiler that produces sequences of Map-Reduce programs, for
+ which large-scale parallel implementations already exist (e.g.,
+ the Hadoop subproject).</para>
