Apache Hive Cookbook

Chapter 2. Services in Hive

In the previous chapter, you learned how we could install Hive with different metastore configurations. We also have gone through Hive clients and Hive services in brief.

In this chapter, we will cover the following recipes in detail:

  • Introducing HiveServer2
  • Understanding HiveServer2 properties
  • Configuring HiveServer2 high availability
  • Using HiveServer2 clients
  • Introducing the Hive metastore service
  • Configuring high availability of metastore service
  • Introducing Hue

Introducing HiveServer2

HiveServer2 is an enhancement of HiveServer provided in earlier versions of Hive. The major limitations of HiveServer related to concurrency and authentication is resolved in HiveServer2. HiveServer2 is based on Thrift RPC. It supports multiple types of clients, including JDBC and ODBC.

How to do it…

Assuming that you have installed Hive on your machine, as explained in Chapter 1, Developing Hive. Before starting HiveServer2, you need to add the following property to hive-site.xml:

<property>
    <name>hive.server2.thrift.port</name>
    <value>10000</value>
    <description>TCP port number to listen on, default 10000
    </description>
</property>

Starting HiveServer2 is easy. All you need to do is run the following command on the terminal of your machine, as shown in the following screenshots:

# hive --service hiveserver2 &
How to do it…

How it works…

Let's look into the series of actions that starts with HiveServer2...

Understanding HiveServer2 properties

By default, HiveServer2 is started with default configurations. The configurations are mainly related to the port and host on which the server is going to start and number of threads that could be configured for client and background operations.

How to do it…

You can change the default properties for HiveServer2 by overriding the value in hive-site.xml in the conf folder of Hive package.

Configuring HiveServer2 high availability

HiveServer2 for a cluster of thousands of nodes could be a single point of failure if HiveServer2 is not configured with a high availability concept. If HiveServer2 service goes down, none of the clients would be able to access metastore or submit Hive queries to cluster. To solve this limitation, high availability of HiveServer2 is configured. It needs a ZooKeeper quorum running on a set of nodes.

ZooKeeper is an open source centralized service for providing coordination between distributed applications. It is also used to store some common configuration and metadata to provide distributed synchronization. Hive uses ZooKeeper to store configuration information to provide high availability of HiveServer2.

Getting ready

For configuring high availability of HiveServer2, you will need a ZooKeeper quorum running.

Tip

The installation of ZooKeeper is not in the scope of this book. You can refer to the following links for the installation of ZooKeeper.

  • Refer...

Using HiveServer2 clients

Once we started HiveServer2, we could connect to the server with different clients as per our requirements and run Hive Query Language (HiveQL). The different client includes beeline, JDBC, ODBC, and so on. We will be going through each client in detail.

Getting ready

This recipe requires Hive installed as described in the Installing Hive recipe of Chapter 1, Developing Hive. For connecting with HiveServer2 using a client, you must run HiveServer2, as described in the Introducing HiveServer2 recipe in this chapter.

How to do it…

There are multiple ways of connecting with HiveServer2, as described in the following sections.

Beeline

Beeline is a shell client that could be executed from the terminal by running the following command:

beeline

Once you enter the beeline shell, you can make a connection to the HiveServer2 service as a user using the following command:

!connect jdbc:hive2://localhost:10000 scott tiger org.apache.hive.jdbc.HiveDriver

If the connection is...

Introducing the Hive metastore service

In Hive, the data is stored in HDFS and the table, database, schema, and other HQL definitions are stored in a metastore. The metastore could be any RDBMS database, such as MySQL or Oracle. Hive creates a database and a set of tables in metastore to store HiveQL definitions.

There are three modes of configuring a metastore:

  • Embedded
  • Local
  • Remote

The detailed description and configuration steps of different modes are available in Chapter 1, Developing Hive.

How to do it…

The Hive metastore could be made available as a service. All you need to do is run the following command on the terminal of your machine:

hive --service metastore
How to do it…

How it works…

In the case of a remote metastore configuration, all clients connect to the metastore service to query the underlying datastore (MySQL, Oracle, and so on). The communication is done through the Thrift protocol. At the client's side, a user needs to add the following configurations to make the client...

Configuring high availability of metastore service

The Hive metastore service is a single point of communication between different clients and metastore data. If the metastore service is down or unavailable, then clients would not be able to run any HiveQL as metastore data is not accessible.

How to do it…

The High Availability solution is designed to provide the failover control of the Hive metastore service. To configure metastore in the High Availability mode, you need to concurrently start the metastore service on multiple machines. Every client will read the hive.metastore.uris property from the configuration file. The property could have a comma-separated list of machines on which metastore services are running:

<property>
    <name>hive.metastore.uris</name>
    <value>thrift://$Hive_Metastore_Server_Host_Machine_FQDN</value>
    <description> A comma separated list of metastore uris on which metastore service is running.</description&gt...
