+    <para>Apache Pig is a platform for analyzing large data sets
+    that consists of a high-level language for expressing data
+    analysis programs, coupled with infrastructure for evaluating
+    these programs. The salient property of Pig programs is that
+    their structure is amenable to substantial parallelization,
+    which in turns enables them to handle very large data sets. At
+    the present time, Pig's infrastructure layer consists of a
+    compiler that produces sequences of Map-Reduce programs, for
+    which large-scale parallel implementations already exist (e.g.,
+    the Hadoop subproject).</para>
