HCatalog – writing data to Hive tables from Java MapReduce computations
HCatalog also allows us to write data to Hive tables from Java MapReduce computations using the HCatOutputFormat. In this recipe, we'll be looking at how to write data to a Hive table using a Java MapReduce computation. This recipe extends the computation of the previous HCatalog – performing Java MapReduce computations on data mapped to Hive tables recipe by adding table write capability.
Getting ready
Make sure HCatalog is installed with Hive in your system.
