/**
 * 
 * The interface Mapper is used to build mappers for the {@link Job}. Most mappers will only need to
 * implement this interface and the {@link #map(Object, Object, Context)} method to collect and emit needed
 * key-value pairs.

 * For more complex algorithms there is the possibility to implement the {@link LifecycleMapper} interface and
 * override the {@link LifecycleMapper#initialize(Context)} and {@link LifecycleMapper#finalized(Context)}
 * methods as well.
 * 
 * A simple mapper could look like the following example:
 * 
 * public class MyMapper extends Mapper<Integer, Integer, String, Integer>
 * {
 *   public void map( Integer key, Integer value, Context<String, Integer> context )
 *   {
 *     context.emit( String.valueOf( key ), value );
 *   }
 * }
 * 
 * 
 * 
 * If you want to know more about the implementation of MapReduce algorithms read the {@see Google Whitepaper on MapReduce}.
 * 
 *
 * @param     The type of key used in the {@link KeyValueSource}
 * @param   The type of value used in the {@link KeyValueSource}
 * @param    The key type for mapped results
 * @param  The value type for mapped results
 * @since 3.2
 * @deprecated MapReduce is deprecated and will be removed in 4.0.
 * For map aggregations, you can use {@link com.hazelcast.aggregation.Aggregator} on IMap.
 * For general data processing, it is superseded by Hazelcast Jet.
