Maciek Kocon updated HIVE-12336:
--------------------------------
Description:
Logically and functionally bucketing and partitioning are quite similar - both
provide mechanism to segregate and separate the table's data based on its
content. Thanks to that significant further optimisations like [partition]
PRUNING or [bucket] MAP JOIN are possible.
The difference seems to be imposed by design where the PARTITIONing is
open/explicit while BUCKETing is discrete/implicit.
Partitioning seems to be very common if not a standard feature in all current
RDBMS while BUCKETING seems to be HIVE specific only.
In a way BUCKETING could be also called by "hashing" or simply "IMPLICIT
PARTITIONING".
Regardless of the fact that these two are recognised as two separate features
available in Hive there should be nothing to prevent leveraging same existing
query/join optimisations across the two.
PARTITION MAPJOIN
Use the same type of optimization as in SORT MERGE BUCKETED MAP JOIN for
partitioned tables.
The sort-merge join optimization could be performed when PARTITIONED tables
being joined are sorted and partitioned on the join columns.
The corresponding partitions are joined with each other at the mapper. If both
A and B have partitions set on their columns KEY, the following join
SELECT /*+ MAPJOIN(b) */ a.key, a.value
FROM A a JOIN B b ON a.key = b.key
can be done on the mapper only. The mapper for the partition key='201512' for A
will traverse the corresponding partition for B. Traversing is possible if the
corresponding partitions are sorted on the same columns. This is dependent on
(taken care by [HIVE-11525|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-12337])
