Abstract

A distributed computing framework and a distributed computing method are provided. A specific embodiment of the distributed computing framework includes: a parsing unit, configured to parse an expression of a distributed computing task, and determine an operator and a field corresponding to the operator; and an operator unit, configured to provide the operator, input parameters of the operator including: the field and a field-type distributed dataset. The type of parameters received and returned by any operator may be the field-type distributed dataset, and any operator may operate on the data corresponding to the field in the field-type distributed dataset. Therefore, any operator needs to be implemented once to realize the reuse of the operator. The distributed computing task is expressed in a simple expression, which simplifies the complexity of writing a distributed computing program with the distributed computing framework used by the user.
