Hive Ingestion

Overview

Hive Crawling helps to store existing hive schema's metadata in mongoDB so that Data Transformation can use it to build pipelines on top of that data.

NOTE: Currently, Hive crawling is supported only if the Hive schema is on the same cluster where Infoworks DataFoundry is deployed.

Creating Hive Source

For creating a Hive source, see Source Creation. Ensure that the Source Type selected is Hive.

Configuring Hive Source

For configuring a Hive source, see Source Configuration.

Hive Settings
