Gopal V commented on HIVE-7159: ------------------------------- Looks like HIVE-4867 has invalidated this change set. Will try to rebase to trunk. > For inner joins push a 'is not null predicate' to the join sources for every > non nullSafe join condition > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-7159 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7159 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Harish Butani > Attachments: HIVE-7159.1.patch > > > A join B on A.x = B.y > can be transformed to > (A where x is not null) join (B where y is not null) on A.x = B.y > Apart from avoiding shuffling null keyed rows it also avoids issues with > reduce-side skew when there are a lot of null values in the data. > Thanks to [~gopalv] for the analysis and coming up with the solution. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
