title: How to write to hadoop hdfs using lzo compression without map reduce
body: <p>I am writing to hadoop hdfs. The file has to be compressed using lzo. Also the file will be appended in realtime. </p>
  
  <p>The source file is a gzip file that is not present in hadoop. A batch processes this gzip file, and then does lzo compression and appends to hadoop. Does this eliminate the possibility of using map reduce ?</p>
  
  <p>How can we achieve this ?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance for the help</p>
