Gopal V commented on HIVE-12334:
--------------------------------
This is an intriguing idea, with the layout partitioning that can be expanded
as standard SQL unions?
{code}
SELECT /*+ MAPJOIN(b) */ a.key, a.value
FROM a JOIN b ON a.key = b.key and a.key
{code}
becomes
{code}
SELECT a.key, a.value from a,b where a.key = b.key and a.key = "20151208" and
b.key = "20151208"
UNION ALL
SELECT a.key, a.value from a,b where a.key = b.key and a.key = "20151209" and
b.key = "20151309"
...
{code}
for the set intersection of a.key & b.key?

> Key: HIVE-12334

> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Logical Optimizer, Physical Optimizer, SQL
> Affects Versions: 0.13.0, 0.14.0, 0.13.1, 1.0.0, 1.1.0

> 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 BUCKETED MAP JOIN for PARTITIONED
> tables.
> The partition map join could be performed if the tables being joined are
> partitioned on the join columns.
> If table A has set partitioning on KEY column and table B is partitioned on
> KEY column, the following join
> SELECT /*+ MAPJOIN(b) */ a.key, a.value
> FROM a JOIN b ON a.key = b.key
> can be done on the mapper only. Instead of fetching B completely for each
> mapper of A, only the required partitions are fetched. For the query above,
> the mapper processing partition key='20151208' for A will only fetch
> partition for key='20151208' of B.
