Hive Tutorial For Beginners: Learn With Examples in 3 Days

This document provides an overview and syllabus for a 3 day Hive tutorial for beginners. It introduces Apache Hive, which helps query and manage large datasets using SQL-like queries. The syllabus covers basic Hive concepts like installation, configuration, data types, and advanced topics like partitions, buckets, indexes, queries and joins. It defines what Hive is, how it provides a SQL interface to analyze data stored in Hadoop using MapReduce, and compares Hive to using MapReduce directly.

Introduction to Hive
Hive evolved as a data warehousing solution built on top of Hadoop Map-Reduce
framework.

The size of data sets being collected and analyzed in the industry for business
intelligence is growing and in a way, it is making traditional data warehousing
solutions more expensive. Hadoop with MapReduce framework, is being used as an
alternative solution for analyzing data sets with huge size. Though, Hadoop has
proved useful for working on huge data sets, its MapReduce framework is very low
level and it requires programmers to write custom programs which are hard to
maintain and reuse. Hive comes here for rescue of programmers.

Hive engine compiles these queries into Map-Reduce jobs to be executed on


Hadoop. In addition, custom Map-Reduce scripts can also be plugged into queries.
Hive operates on data stored in tables which consists of primitive data types and
collection data types like arrays and maps.
Hive comes with a command-line shell interface which can be used to create tables
and execute queries.

Hive query language is similar to SQL wherein it supports subqueries. With Hive
query language, it is possible to take a MapReduce joins across Hive tables. It has a
support for simple SQL like functions– CONCAT, SUBSTR, ROUND etc.,
and aggregation functions– SUM, COUNT, MAX etc. It also supports GROUP BY and
SORT BY clauses. It is also possible to write user defined functions in Hive query
language.

What is Hive?
Apache Hive is a data warehouse framework for querying and analysis of data
stored in HDFS. It is developed on top of Hadoop. Hive is an open-source software
to analyze large data sets on Hadoop. It provides SQL-like declarative language,
called HiveQL, to express queries. Using Hive-QL, users associated with SQL can
perform data analysis very easily.

Hive Vs Map Reduce


Prior to choosing one of these two options, we must look at some of their features.

While choosing between Hive and Map reduce following factors are taken in
consideration;

 Type of Data
 Amount of Data
 Complexity of Code

Hive Vs Map Reduce?


Feature Hive Map Reduce

 It compiles language with two main task


It Supports SQL like query language for is map task, and another one is a reduce

interaction and for Data modeling  We can define these task using Java or P

Level of abstraction Higher level of Abstraction on top of HDFS Lower level of abstraction

Efficiency in Code Comparatively lesser than Map reduce Provides High efficiency
