Check query execution

You can determine if query vectorization occurred during execution by running the EXPLAIN VECTORIZATION query statement.

  1. Start Hive from Beeline.
    $ hive
  2. Set hive.explain.user to false to see vector values.
    SET hive.explain.user=false;
  3. Run the EXPLAIN VECTORIZATION statement on the query you want CDP to process using vectorization.
    EXPLAIN VECTORIZATION SELECT COUNT(*) FROM employees where emp_no>10;
    The following output confirms that vectorization occurs:
