Hi, I have a Hive table created with the Avro Serde.
When I add some data to it using the Snappy compression, it still looks compressed with deflate (the file starts with 'Obj...avro.codec.deflate.avro.Schema' where for raw data compressed with Snappy, the Snappy coded is specified at the beginning of the file). Anything I'm doing wrong? Here's what I do: CREATE TABLE p2c_comp_avro ROW FORMAT SERDE 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.avro.AvroSerDe' STORED as INPUTFORMAT 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.io.avro.AvroContainerInputFormat' OUTPUTFORMAT 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.io.avro.AvroContainerOutputFormat' TBLPROPERTIES ( 'avro.schema.url'='file:///home/cloudera/bigdata/path_to_conversions_raw.avsc'); SET hive.exec.compress.output=true; SET mapred.output.compression.codec=org.apache.hadoop.io.compress.SnappyCodec; SET mapred.output.compression.type=BLOCK; INSERT OVERWRITE TABLE p2c_comp_avro SELECT * FROM p2c; Thanks! -- View this message in context: http://apache-avro.679487.n3.nabble.com/Avro-with-Snappy-compression-on-Hive-tp4027079.html Sent from the Avro - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
