Gopal V commented on HIVE-9188: ------------------------------- Left some comments, particularly about the encoding of the bloom filter itself. The List<Long> is a bad idea as the 2nd long in the list is actually a double containing the fpp value. Otherwise the patch looks good. I've added it to the build right now, will ETL in a bunch of the NYC taxi data with this and run some point-scan queries. > BloomFilter in ORC row group index > ---------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-9188 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-9188 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: File Formats > Affects Versions: 0.15.0 > Reporter: Prasanth Jayachandran > Assignee: Prasanth Jayachandran > Labels: orcfile > Attachments: HIVE-9188.1.patch, HIVE-9188.2.patch, HIVE-9188.3.patch, > HIVE-9188.4.patch > > > BloomFilters are well known probabilistic data structure for set membership > checking. We can use bloom filters in ORC index for better row group pruning. > Currently, ORC row group index uses min/max statistics to eliminate row > groups (stripes as well) that do not satisfy predicate condition specified in > the query. But in some cases, the efficiency of min/max based elimination is > not optimal (unsorted columns with wide range of entries). Bloom filters can > be an effective and efficient alternative for row group/split elimination for > point queries or queries with IN clause. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
