一.为Hive配置Update功能

1.编辑hive-site.xml文件:

<property>
    <name>hive.optimize.sort.dynamic.partition</name>
    <value>false</value>
</property>
<property>
    <name>hive.support.concurrency</name>
    <value>true</value>
</property>
<property>
    <name>hive.enforce.bucketing</name>
    <value>true</value>
</property>
<property>
    <name>hive.exec.dynamic.partition.mode</name>
    <value>nonstrict</value>
</property>
<property>
    <name>hive.txn.manager</name>
    <value>org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.lockmgr.DbTxnManager</value>
</property>
<property>
    <name>hive.compactor.initiator.on</name>
    <value>true</value>
</property>
<property>
    <name>hive.compactor.worker.threads</name>
    <value>1</value>
</property>
<property>
    <name>hive.in.test</name>
    <value>true</value>
</property>

二.Update语法

1.创表语句

Hive对使用Update功能的表有特定的语法要求, 语法要求如下:
(1)要执行Update的表中, 建表时必须带有buckets(分桶)属性
(2)要执行Update的表中, 需要指定格式,其余格式目前赞不支持, 如:parquet格式, 目前只支持ORCFileformat和AcidOutputFormat
(3)要执行Update的表中, 建表时必须指定参数(‘transactional’ = true);
举例:

create table student (id bigint,name string) clustered by (name) into 2 buckets stored as orc TBLPROPERTIES('transactional'='true');

2.更新语句:

update student set id='444' where name='tom';
