Introduction to Hive Connector

You can use Hive Connector to connect to Hive from Data Integration. You can use Hive Connector on a Linux operating system.
You can read data from and write data to Hive tables. The tables can also be partitioned or bucketed in Hive. You can access Hive from Kerberos or non-Kerberos clusters and on Amazon EMR 6.3 kerberized cluster where the Hive metastore is on AWS Glue or MySQL. You can also connect to Hive on a Cloudera CDP Private Cloud 7.x distribution enabled with Knox. For the other distributions that apply for Hive Connector, see Distributions.
You can use a Hive object as a source and target in mappings and mapping tasks. You can switch mappings to advanced mode to include transformations and functions that enable advanced functionality.
