Hive
...
defines
...
a
...
simple
...
SQL-like
...
query
...
language,
...
called
...
QL,
...
that
...
enables
...
users
...
familiar
...
with
...
SQL
...
to
...
query
...
the
...
data.
...
At
...
the
...
same
...
time,
...
this
...
language
...
also
...
allows
...
programmers
...
who
...
are
...
familiar
...
with
...
the
...
MapReduce
...
framework
...
to
...
be
...
able
...
to
...
plug
...
in
...
their
...
custom
...
mappers
...
and
...
reducers
...
to
...
perform
...
more
...
sophisticated
...
analysis
...
that
...
may
...
not
...
be
...
supported
...
by
...
the
...
built-in
...
capabilities
...
of
...
the
...
language.
...
QL
...
can
...
also
...
be
...
extended
...
with
...
custom
...
scalar
...
functions
...
(UDF's),
...
aggregations
...
(UDAF's),
...
and
...
table
...
functions
...
(UDTF's).
...
Hive
...
does
...
not
...
mandate
...
read
...
or
...
written
...
data
...
be
...
in
...
the
...
"Hive
...
format"---there
...
is
...
no
...
such
...
thing.
...
Hive
...
works
...
equally
...
well
...
on
...
Thrift,
...
control
...
delimited,
...
or
...
your
...
specialized
...
data
...
formats.
...
Please
...
see
...
...
...
and
...
...
in
...
the
...
...
...
for
...
details.
...
Hive
...
is
...
not
...
designed
...
for
...
OLTP
...
workloads
...
and
...
does
...
not
...
offer
...
real-time
...
queries
...
or
...
row-level
...
updates.
...
It
...
is
...
best
...
used
...
for
...
batch
...
jobs
...
over
...
large
...
sets
...
of
...
append-only
...
data
...
(like
...
web
...
logs).
...
What
...
Hive
...
values
...
most
...
are
...
scalability
...
(scale
...
out
...
with
...
more
...
machines
...
added
...
dynamically
...
to
...
the
...
Hadoop
...
cluster),
...
extensibility
...
(with
...
MapReduce
...
framework
...
and
...
UDF/UDAF/UDTF),
...
fault-tolerance,
...
and
...
loose-coupling
...
with
...
its
...
input
...
formats.

Components

of

HCatalog

and

WebHCat.
...
...
is
...
a
...
component
...
of
...
Hive.
...
It
...
is
...
a
...
table
...
and
...
storage
...
management
...
layer
...
for
...
Hadoop
...
that
...
enables
...
users
...
with
...
different
...
data
...
processing
...
tools
...
—
...
including
...
Pig
...
and
...
MapReduce
...
—
...
to
...
more
...
easily
...
read
...
and
...
write
...
data
...
on
...
the
...
grid.

WebHCat provides a service that you can use to run Hadoop MapReduce (or YARN), Pig, Hive jobs or perform Hive metadata operations using a HTTP (REST style) interface.
