We are going to use MapReduce to perform some mathematical computations on a data storage that contains some accounting information. In particular, we decided to use a Spanish and Portuguese database called Sistema de Análisis de Balances Ibéricos (SABI). This work focuses on the financial database SABI, which is considered as a basic research tool by many Spanish universities and is largely used by private companies to perform market analysis. Although this repository constitutes the main financial information source in Spain, many companies do not properly fill in all the field, leading to an incomplete data panel. In some works, this issue is roughly solved by excluding those rows that belong to companies with missing values or inconsistent data. Nonetheless, this data repository is targeted to engage researchers in analyzing companies’ efficiency, computing ratios like indebtedness, availability of idle resources, or capital costs, among others.application/pdfengSABIFinancial metrics computationCloud computing keeps financial metrics computation simpleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/studentThesisinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
