A tour of Hive
Details
Apache Hive has become a great way for people to start using Hadoop, as it it features a SQL like query language. But Hive is not a regular database, and Hive’s query language is not SQL. In this talk, I will give you a tour of Hive, and try to focus in on the areas where Hive is different, and where you might get a few surprises when you start using Hive in practice. The talk will include some live demos, and some of the topics that will be touched upon include Tez vs. MR, the ORC format, window functions and transforms.
