If you want to use Apache Hive for a quick test, you can do so using Hive
default authorization mode, assuming you are on an insecure cluster (no Kerberos or Ranger
policies). In default authorization mode, only user hive
can access Hive.
Steps to start the Hive shell, not to be mistaken with the Hive CLI that CDP does not
support, include how to log into a cluster.
-
In CDP Public Cloud, in , in the Data Lake Cluster tab, click
CM-UI.
-
In Cloudera Manager, click .
-
Make a note of the IP address or host name of a node in your cluster, for
example myhost-vpc.cloudera.com.
-
Use ssh to log into the cluster.
For example:
ssh myhost-vpc.cloudera.com
-
Type
hive
to start Hive from the command line.
-
Enter Hive queries.
SHOW DATABASES;
CREATE TABLE students (name VARCHAR(64), age INT, gpa DECIMAL(3,2));
INSERT INTO TABLE students VALUES ('fred flintstone', 35, 1.28), ('barney rubble', 32, 2.32);
