I have this query to calculate some averages: select hour, cdn, avg(bitrate) from fact_table group by hour, cdn 1 8 a 1 9 b 2 8 c 3 8 d 3 9 e
But I want the output to be in the following format so that it can be eyeballed/graphed more easily: 1 a b 2 c NULL 3 d e (The 2nd and 3rd columns are averages for cdn 8 and 9, respectively.) Is there an easy way to do this - in Hive, Unix, etc.? Suggestions (or, better yet, solutions) are welcome. I imagine a UDAF could do this (see below), but AFAIK it is not built into Hive. select hour, some_udaf(abr, cdn, array(8, 9)) from (select hour, cdn, avg(bitrate) as abr from fact_table group by hour, cdn) t group by hour Thanks.
