== Required Software ==
On the client side (PC), the following are required:
- * Any version of Hive that incorporates [[[https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-467|HIVE-467]]]. (As of this writing - the relevant patches are not committed. For convenience sake - a Hive distribution with this patch can be downloaded from [[[http://jsensarma.com/downloads/hive-s3-ec2.tar.gz|here]]].)

- * A version of Hadoop ec2 scripts (src/contrib/ec2/bin) with a fix for [[[https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-5839]]]. Again - since the relevant patches are not committed yet - a version of Hadoop-19 ec2 scripts with the relevant patches applied can be downloaded from [[[http://jsensarma.com/downloads/hadoop-0.19-ec2-remote.tar.gz|here]]]. These scripts must be used to launch hadoop clusters in EC2.

Hive requires a local directory of Hadoop to run (specified using environment variable HADOOP_HOME). This can be a version of Hadoop compatible with the one running on the EC2 clusters. This recipe has been tried with hadoop distribution created from from branch-19.

== Setting up tables (DDL Statements) ==
In this example - we will use HDFS as the default table store for Hive. We will make Hive tables over the files in S3 using the {{{external tables}}} functionality in Hive. Executing DDL commands does not require a functioning Hadoop cluster (since we are just setting up metadata):
* Declare a simple table containing key-value pairs:
+ . {{{
- . {{{hive> create external table kv (key int, values string) location 's3n://data.s3ndemo.hive/kv';}}}

== Executing Queries ==
Hive can execute some queries without a Hadoop cluster. For example:
+ {{{
- {{{hive> select * from kv limit 10; }}}
+ hive> select * from kv limit 10;
+ }}}
{{{select *}}} queries with limit clauses can be performed locally on the Hive CLI itself. If you are doing this - please note that:
* {{{fs.default.name}}} should be set to {{{file:///}}} in case CLI is not configured to use a working Hadoop cluster
* '''Please Please do not select all the rows from large data sets'''. This will cause large amount of data to be downloaded from S3 to outside AWS and incur charges on the host account for these data sets!
Of course - the real fun is in doing some non-trivial queries using map-reduce. For this we will need a Hadoop cluster (finally!):
- 1. Start a Hadoop cluster on EC2 (using directions from [[[http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/AmazonEC2|Hadoop-EC2 tutorial]] - but making sure to use a version of ec2 scripts with HADOOP-5839 applied! User is free to allocate any number of nodes they wish - although this tutorial was tried out with 10 nodes.
+ 1. Start a Hadoop cluster on EC2 (using directions from [[http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/AmazonEC2|Hadoop-EC2 tutorial]] - but making sure to use a version of ec2 scripts with HADOOP-5839 applied! User is free to allocate any number of nodes they wish - although this tutorial was tried out with 10 nodes.
1. Note down the public hostnames of the master node. For example, the public hostname maybe something like:
- . {{{ec2-75-101-170-131.compute-1.amazonaws.com}}}
+ . {{{ec2-12-34-56-78.compute-1.amazonaws.com}}}
1.#3 Point the Hive CLI to use this Hadoop cluster by executing:
+ . {{{
- . {{{hive> set fs.default.name=hdfs://ec2-75-101-170-131.compute-1.amazonaws.com:50001;
+ hive> set fs.default.name=hdfs://ec2-12-34-56-78.compute-1.amazonaws.com:50001;
- hive> set mapred.job.tracker=ec2-75-101-170-131.compute-1.amazonaws.com:50002;}}}
+ hive> set mapred.job.tracker=ec2-12-34-56-78.compute-1.amazonaws.com:50002;
+ }}}
1.#4 Set up a ssh tunnel via port 2600 to the Hadoop master. This can be done by executing the following from another terminal/window:
- . {{{linux> ssh -i <path to Hadoop private key path> -D 2600 ec2-75-101-170-131.compute-1.amazonaws.com}}}
+ . {{{$ ssh -i <path to Hadoop private key path> -D 2600 ec2-12-34-56-78.compute-1.amazonaws.com}}}
Now we are all setup. The sample query from TPCH (1.sql) can be tried as follows:
{{{
hive> insert overwrite directory '/tmp/tpcresults-1.sql'
- select l_returnflag, l_linestatus, sum ( l_quantity ) as sum_qty, sum ( l_extendedprice ) as sum_base_price,
+ select l_returnflag, l_linestatus, sum ( l_quantity ) as sum_qty, sum ( l_extendedprice ) as sum_base_price,
- sum ( l_extendedprice * ( 1 - l_discount )) as sub_disc_price,
+ sum ( l_extendedprice * ( 1 - l_discount )) as sub_disc_price,
- sum ( l_extendedprice * ( 1 - l_discount ) * ( 1 + l_tax )) as sum_charge,
+ sum ( l_extendedprice * ( 1 - l_discount ) * ( 1 + l_tax )) as sum_charge,
- avg ( l_quantity ) as avg_qty, avg ( l_extendedprice ) as avg_price,
+ avg ( l_quantity ) as avg_qty, avg ( l_extendedprice ) as avg_price,
- avg ( l_discount ) as avg_disc, count ( 1 ) as count_order
+ avg ( l_discount ) as avg_disc, count ( 1 ) as count_order
- from lineitem where l_shipdate <= to_date('1998-12-01') group by l_returnflag, l_linestatus ;
+ from lineitem where l_shipdate <= to_date('1998-12-01') group by l_returnflag, l_linestatus;
}}}
This launches one map-reduce job and on 10 nodes with default hadoop/hive settings - this took about 10 minutes. The results in this case are stored in HDFS and can be obtained by doing a {{{dfs -cat /tmp/tpcresults/1-2.sql/*}}} - either from bin/hadoop or from hive CLI. The query above differs from the TPCH query in skipping the order by clause - since it's not implemented by Hive currently.
== Storing results back in S3 ==
The results could also have been stored as a file in S3 directly, for example, we could alter the previous insert clause to read as:
- {{{hive> insert overwrite directory 's3n://jssarma/tpcresults-1.sql' }}} - where {{{jssarma}}} is a pre-existing bucket in S3.
+ {{{
+ hive> insert overwrite directory 's3n://target-bucket/tpcresults-1.sql';
+ }}}
As another alternative, one could have created an external table over S3 and stored the results directly in it, for example:
+ {{{
- {{{hive> create external table t1 (flag string, status string, double ...)
+ hive> create external table t1 (flag string, status string, double ...)
- location 's3n://jssarma/tpcresults-1.sql';
+ location 's3n://jssarma/tpcresults-1.sql';
- hive> insert overwrite table t1 select ...}}}
+ hive> insert overwrite table t1 select ...;
+ }}}
Similarly, one could have stored the results back in a partition in an partitioned external table as well.
== Using tmp tables in HDFS ==
Currently, Hive does not have any explicit support tmp tables. But tables defined over HDFS in EC2 are like tmp tables since they only last for the duration of the Hadoop cluster. Since they are likely to be much faster than accessing S3 directly - they can be used to stage data that may be accessed repeatedly during a session. For example - for the TPCH dataset - one may want to do some analysis of customer attributes against order details - and it would be first beneficial to materialize the join of these data sets and then do repeated queries against it. Here's some example sql that would do the same:
+ {{{
- {{{hive> create table cust_order (nationkey string, acctbal double, mktsegment string, orderstatus string, totalprice double);
+ hive> create table cust_order (nationkey string, acctbal double, mktsegment string, orderstatus string, totalprice double);
- hive> from customer c left outer join orders o on (c.c_custkey = o.o_custkey) insert overwrite table cust_order select c.c_nationkey, c.c_acctbal, c.c_mktsegment, o.o_orderstatus, o.o_totalprice; }}}
+ hive> from customer c left outer join orders o on (c.c_custkey = o.o_custkey)
+ insert overwrite table cust_order
+ select c.c_nationkey, c.c_acctbal, c.c_mktsegment, o.o_orderstatus, o.o_totalprice;
+ }}}

- The socket related options allow Hive CLI to communicate with the Hadoop cluster using a ssh tunnel (that will be established later). The job.ugi is specified to avoid issues with permissions on HDFS. {{{mapred.map.tasks}}} specification is a hack that works around [[[https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-5861|HADOOP-5861]]] and may need to be set higher for large clusters. {{{mapred.reduce.tasks}}} is specified to let Hive determine the number of reducers (see [[[https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-490|HIVE-490]]]).
