table/partition level statistics -------------------------------- Key: HIVE-1361 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1361 Project: Hadoop Hive Issue Type: Sub-task Affects Versions: 0.6.0 Reporter: Ning Zhang Assignee: Ahmed M Aly Fix For: 0.6.0
At the first step, we gather table-level stats for non-partitioned table and partition-level stats for partitioned table. Future work could extend the table level stats to partitioned table as well. There are 3 major milestones in this subtask: 1) extend the insert statement to gather table/partition level stats on-the-fly. 2) extend metastore API to support storing and retrieving stats for a particular table/partition. 3) add an ANALYZE TABLE [PARTITION] statement in Hive QL to gather stats for existing tables/partitions. The proposed stats are: Partition-level stats: - number of rows - total size in bytes - number of files - max, min, average row sizes - max, min, average file sizes Table-level stats in addition to partition level stats: - number of partitions -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
