3.表篇分区

不用于关系数据库partition中的字段可以不再table中,但是partition中的字段可以如同table中column一样使用这样可以加快查询速度,因为只用查找一个目下文件就可以了这里分区分为单分区partition一个column,多分区partition多个column单分区就一个目录,多分区也是一个目录,并嵌套多个目录

实例:按照 country 和 state 给employee多分区

CREATE TABLE employees (

name STRING,

salary FLOAT,

subordinates ARRAY<STRING>,

deductions MAP<STRING, FLOAT>,

address STRUCT<street:STRING, city:STRING, state:STRING, zip:INT>

)

PARTITIONED BY (country STRING, state STRING);

查看partition

show partitions employees;

SHOW PARTITIONS employees PARTITION(country='US');

添加partition(不区分大小写)

alter table employees add partition(country='US',state='dallas')

alter table employees add partition(country='US',state='dallas') location '/home/hadoop/us-dallas'

alter table employees add partition(country='US',state='dallas') location '/home/hadoop/us-dallas' partition(country='US',state='ca') location '/home/hadoop/us-dallas'

删除partition,分区数据和元数据都被删除

alter table employees drop partition(country='us',state='dallas');

向分区中添加数据

load data inpath '/home/hadoop/resource/dallas' into table employees partition(country='us',state='dallas');

 

分区的属性

set hive.mapred.mode=strict;属性禁止没有where的语句执行在partition的table上(防止数据量巨大得table,执行这样没有限制的语句)

set hive.mapred.mode=nonstrict;
