Apache Hive
Apache Hive is a data warehouse solution that enables the efficient reading, writing, and management of substantial datasets stored across distributed systems using SQL. It allows users to apply structure to pre-existing data in storage. To facilitate user access, it comes equipped with a command line interface and a JDBC driver. As an open-source initiative, Apache Hive is maintained by dedicated volunteers at the Apache Software Foundation. Initially part of the Apache® Hadoop® ecosystem, it has since evolved into an independent top-level project. We invite you to explore the project further and share your knowledge to enhance its development. Users typically implement traditional SQL queries through the MapReduce Java API, which can complicate the execution of SQL applications on distributed data. However, Hive simplifies this process by offering a SQL abstraction that allows for the integration of SQL-like queries, known as HiveQL, into the underlying Java framework, eliminating the need to delve into the complexities of the low-level Java API. This makes working with large datasets more accessible and efficient for developers.
