+
+<ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>Kylin need many dependent jars (hadoop/hive/hcat/hbase/kafka) on classpath to work, but Kylin doesn’t ship them. It will seek these jars from your local machine by running commands like <code class="highlighter-rouge">hbase classpath</code>, <code class="highlighter-rouge">hive -e set</code> etc. The founded jars’ path will be appended to the environment variable <em>HBASE_CLASSPATH</em> (Kylin uses <code class="highlighter-rouge">hbase</code> shell command to start up, which will read this). But in some Hadoop distribution (like EMR 5.0), the <code class="highlighter-rouge">hbase</code> shell doesn’t keep the origin <code class="highlighter-rouge">HBASE_CLASSPATH</code> value, that causes the “NoClassDefFoundError”.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>To fix this, find the hbase shell script (in hbase/bin folder), and search <em>HBASE_CLASSPATH</em>, check whether it overwrite the value like :</p>

Get “java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Too high cardinality is not suitable for dictionary – cardinality: 5220674” in “Build Dimension Dictionary” step</h4>
+
+<ul>
+ <li>Kylin uses “Dictionary” encoding to encode/decode the dimension values (check <a href="/blog/2015/08/13/kylin-dictionary/">this blog</a>); Usually a dimension’s cardinality is less than millions, so the “Dict” encoding is good to use. As dictionary need be persisted and loaded into memory, if a dimension’s cardinality is very high, the memory footprint will be tremendous, so Kylin add a check on this. If you see this error, suggest to identify the UHC dimension first and then re-evaluate the design (whether need to make that as dimension?). If must keep it, you can by-pass this error with couple ways: 1) change to use other encoding (like <code class="highlighter-rouge">fixed_length</code>, <code class="highlighter-rouge">integer</code>) 2) or set a bigger value for <code class="highlighter-rouge">kylin.dictionary.max.cardinality</code> in <code class="highlighter-rouge">conf/kylin.properties</code>.</li>

<ul>
<li>If a column is declared as integer in Hive, the SQL engine (calcite) will use column’s type (integer) as the data type for “SUM(field)”, while the aggregated value on this field may exceed the scope of integer; in that case the cast will cause a negtive value be returned; The workround is, alter that column’s type to BIGINT in hive, and then sync the table schema to Kylin (the cube doesn’t need rebuild); Keep in mind that, always declare as BIGINT in hive for an integer column which would be used as a measure in Kylin; See hive number types: <a href="https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+Types#LanguageManualTypes-NumericTypes">https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+Types#LanguageManualTypes-NumericTypes</a></li>

<li>The cardinality of dimensions is an important measure of cube complexity. The higher the cardinality, the bigger the cube, and thus the longer to build and the slower to query. Cardinality > 1,000 is worth attention and > 1,000,000 should be avoided at best effort. For optimal cube performance, try reduce high cardinality by categorize values or derive features.</li>
