Harish Butani commented on HIVE-896: ------------------------------------ The syntax now is different from the original patch. Here is an e.g. from ptf_npath.q test file {noformat} select origin_city_name, fl_num, year, month, day_of_month, sz, tpath from npath(on flights_tiny distribute by fl_num sort by year, month, day_of_month arg1('LATE.LATE+'), arg2('LATE'), arg3(arr_delay > 15), arg4('origin_city_name, fl_num, year, month, day_of_month, size(tpath) as sz, tpath[0].day_of_month as tpath') ); {noformat} One thing I should point out is that it is not clear if NPath will remain in its current form. > Add LEAD/LAG/FIRST/LAST analytical windowing functions to Hive. > --------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-896 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-896 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: OLAP, UDF > Reporter: Amr Awadallah > Assignee: Harish Butani > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 0.11.0 > > Attachments: DataStructs.pdf, HIVE-896.1.patch.txt, > Hive-896.2.patch.txt, hive-896.3.patch.txt, HIVE-896.4.patch, > HIVE-896.5.patch.txt > > > Windowing functions are very useful for click stream processing and similar > time-series/sliding-window analytics. > More details at: > http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B13789_01/server.101/b10736/analysis.htm#i1006709 > http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B13789_01/server.101/b10736/analysis.htm#i1007059 > http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B13789_01/server.101/b10736/analysis.htm#i1007032 > -- amr -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
