> In Teradata 'like any' and 'like all' operators are mostly used when we are matching a text field with numbers of patterns.
> 'like any' and 'like all' operator are equivalents of multiple like operator like example below.
> {noformat}
> --like any
> select col1 from table1 where col2 like any ('%accountant%', '%accounting%', '%retail%', '%bank%', '%insurance%');
> --Can be written using multiple like condition 
> select col1 from table1 where col2 like '%accountant%' or col2 like '%accounting%' or col2 like '%retail%' or col2 like '%bank%' or col2 like '%insurance%' ;
> --like all
> select col1 from table1 where col2 like all ('%accountant%', '%accounting%', '%retail%', '%bank%', '%insurance%');
> --Can be written using multiple like operator 
> select col1 from table1 where col2 like '%accountant%' and col2 like '%accounting%' and col2 like '%retail%' and col2 like '%bank%' and col2 like '%insurance%' ;
> {noformat}
> Problem statement:
> Now a days so many data warehouse projects are being migrated from Teradata to Hive.
> Always Data engineer and Business analyst are searching for these two operator.
> If we introduce these two operator in hive then so many scripts will be migrated smoothly instead of converting these operators to multiple like operators.
