I should clarify that this is not the most efficient way of doing it - since we are doing a Cartesian product first (which will go to 1 reducer).
We do support CREATE TABLE AS SELECT in hive trunk, but it is not part of 0.4 You can create the table and then insert into that table. -namit From: Sagi, Lee [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, December 15, 2009 3:18 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: LIKE operator Thanks your re-write works perfectly. Allow me to piggy-back and ask a follow-up question, how can I create a table as the result of this query? I tired the obvious CREATE TABLE AAA AS SELECT .... with not success. Thanks.
