[Naveen Gangam <ng...@cloudera.com>]

The Apache Hive team is proud to announce the release of Apache Hive
version 3.1.3. There has been a long gap since the previous release on this

branch.

The Apache Hive (TM) data warehouse software facilitates querying and
managing large datasets residing in distributed storage. Built on top
of Apache Hadoop (TM), it provides, among others:

* Tools to enable easy data extract/transform/load (ETL)

* A mechanism to impose structure on a variety of data formats

* Access to files stored either directly in Apache HDFS (TM) or in other
  data storage systems such as Apache HBase (TM)

* Query execution via Apache Hadoop MapReduce, Apache Tez and Apache
Spark frameworks.
