Partitioned table and Bucket Map Join

[matshyeq <ma...@gmail.com>]

I do have two tables partitioned on the same criteria.
Could I still take advantage of Bucket Map Join or better, Sort Merge
Bucket Map Join?
How?

My hunch is while partitioning is in fact very similar to bucketing
(actually superior as you have some control over what file data goes to)
the hive optimizer only applies bucket joins if your tables are bucketed so
your join condition
   t1.bucketed_column = t2.bucketed_column
triggers the bucketed map join
but
   t1.partitioned_column = t2.partitioned_column
doesn't.
I'm hoping someone with deeper Hive knowledge would be able to confirm this.

Thank you,
Kind Regards

I faced the same situation where two tables with 3 billion records on each side and partitioned, sorted on same key. Set the following parameters in the hive query assuming the join will happen in the map phase. 

set hive.input.format=org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.io.BucketizedHiveInputFormat;
set hive.optimize.bucketmapjoin=true;
set hive.optimize.bucketmapjoin.sortedmerge=true;
set hive.enforce.sorting=true;

I am using hive version 13 and the storage format is Orc. One of the table is small in size but I haven't checked whether irfan fit in the cache as we have huge memory. But the map sided join didn't happen. What could be the reason?
