Study Notes
Pig Latin Statements
- LOAD function: loads data from HDFS using PigStorage, which interprets fields separated by commas.
- FILTER function: filters data to include only records that meet specified conditions (e.g., age > 25).
- STORE function: writes the result to the 'output' directory.
Grouping and Aggregation
- GROUP function: groups data by the specified column (e.g., department).
- FOREACH...GENERATE statement: calculates the average salary for each department using the AVG function.
- STORE function: writes the result to the 'output' directory.
Joining Data
- JOIN function: performs an inner join on the specified column (e.g., department_id) between two datasets.
- FOREACH...GENERATE statement: selects the relevant columns (e.g., employee_id, name, department_name).
- STORE function: writes the joined and selected data to the 'output' directory.
Hive
- Hive is a data warehouse system used for querying and analyzing large datasets stored in HDFS.
- Hive uses a query language called HiveQL, which is similar to SQL.
- Hive has a specific architecture for querying and analyzing data.
