Gopal V commented on HIVE-11525:
--------------------------------
bq. Does this fix applies only to ORC files on TEZ?
No, it applies to any format on Tez (Text/SequenceFile/Parquet etc).
bq. Does this mean that there are no HDFS read operations on a bucket file
UNLESS that bucket is not pruned?
>From the task-side, yes - no tasks will be launched for a bucket which is not
>pruned.

> Logically and functionally bucketing and partitioning are quite similar -
> both provide mechanism to segregate and separate the table's data based on
> its content. Thanks to that significant further optimisations like
> [partition] PRUNING or [bucket] MAP JOIN are possible.
> The difference seems to be imposed by design where the PARTITIONing is
> open/explicit while BUCKETing is discrete/implicit.
> Partitioning seems to be very common if not a standard feature in all current
> RDBMS while BUCKETING seems to be HIVE specific only.
> In a way BUCKETING could be also called by "hashing" or simply "IMPLICIT
> PARTITIONING".
> Regardless of the fact that these two are recognised as two separate features
> available in Hive there should be nothing to prevent leveraging same existing
> query/join optimisations across the two.
> BUCKET pruning
> Enable partition PRUNING equivalent optimisation for queries on BUCKETED
> tables
> Simplest example is for queries like:
> "SELECT … FROM x WHERE colA=123123"
> to read only the relevant bucket file rather than all file-buckets that
> belong to a table.
