See Bejoy and Everyone , I have two tables one users_info and one users_audit in hive ..
hive> desc users_audit; OK id int userid int logtime string hive> desc users_info; OK id int name string age int country string gender string bday string now i have given the description of the tables in hive my goal is to find: the maximum number of users loging - in at between a certain time frame say 1PM to 2PM- belonging to a specific country for example in between 1PM to 2PM there are 10000 users loging into and 5500 are from africa , then i need to print the names of all the users who are logged in between the time stamp and who are from africa .. the logtime in the users_audit table gives the login time and the names and country are from the users_info table . Can someone help me out with this . I am a new user in hive so would like some ones help !!!!!!
