Session III: Hive

Hi all Data Bingers,

In the first two meetup, we mostly covered the fundamentals and focused on writing MapReduce programs. However Hive makes writing MapReduce program redundant. Its SQL like structure automatically converts our queries to an optimized MapReduce plan. In this session we will focus on the fundamentals of Hive. Below are the topics I will be covering in this session:

1. Writing Map Side Join in MapReduce
2. Introduction to Hive

• Introduction to Partition concept
• CRUD commands
• Extending Hive using Streaming, UDF, UDAF and UDTF
