Programming Hive: Data Warehouse and Query Language for Hadoop

Well if you are looking for something that lets you know what is happening in HIVE and how HIVE is doing it, then this is the book to go for. Of course between the different versions of HIVE the what and how changes, but then this book will create the basic ground work to start, grow and be smart with HIVE. Starting with a two node HADOOP cluster and standard HIVE release from APACHE helped me quite a lot.

It's a good book starting with word count example using hive. Also comparing hive with java and discussing benefits of hive.

Great

Super good 😊

This book contains just about everything I need to write Hive SQL - creating databases, tables, running query's and improving the performance of query's. Well worth the money spent.

HIVE is one of the top Hadoop ecosystem components widely used in the market. If you have good knowledge on data warehouse and SQL then this book will be of immense help in learning HIVE. Defines the architecture and programming very nicely. Personally I like this book. Recommended for analysts, business analyst and of course developers. The delivery was worse. I received the book after 15 days of placing the order.

Este libro es posiblemente la única fuente completa, comprensible y fiable para cualquier programador que tenga que enfrentarse a Hive. Se lo recomiendo a todo aquel que quiera utilizar Hive a nivel profesional.

Great book to learn how to analyze data on hadoop using SQL commands, but I think it need an actualization because the examples are too old.

I had joined Nextag a few months before this book got released and my solo-artist project was to convert all MySQL aggregations to Hadoop. I was thinking MR Java, HBase - and then I started reading this book. Start to end it took me less than a week and I decided that I want to give Hive a shot. It was possibly Hive 0.8 in late 2012 if my memory serves me right. I joined the Hive user group and also had the good fortune of communicating with two of the authors Capriolo and Wampler ad seeking clarifications. I don't want to go into the details of how well written this book is. Thye developers who read this review will get it when that reading this book and actively participating in the Hive community helped me a great deal to execute a project all the way from start to production - all by myself...If the authors want to publish a V2 , I would love to write a case study :-)

A good book if you want to know more about Hive. Theoretical and practical at the right point. I strongly suggest it.
