Piggy Bank: Enhancing

Data Processing with


UDFs
Piggy Bank is a powerful data processing framework, offering a
flexible platform for data manipulation. User-Defined Functions
(UDFs) play a crucial role in expanding Piggy Bank's capabilities by
providing custom functionality tailored to specific tasks. UDFs
enable developers to define and execute custom code within the
Piggy Bank environment, enabling them to handle a wider range of
data processing challenges.
