Hi Jone, I'd like to remember that Hive supports ACID (in a very early stages yet) but most often that is a feature that most people don't use for real production systems. I think there is nothing for "auto-increment keys" like RDBMS due the nature of parallelism of Hive and Hadoop ecosystem. Still you can try for your use-case to write your own UDF.
Apart from that you can generate UUID with reflect UDF: reflect("java.util.UUID", "randomUUID") Thanks, Luis On Tue, Apr 11, 2017 at 10:02 AM, Jone Zhang <joyoungzh...@gmail.com> wrote: > The hive table write by many people. > How to create auto increment key for a table in hive? > > For example > create table test(id, value) > load data v1 v2 into table test > load data v3 v4 into table test > > select * from test > 1 v1 > 2 v2 > 3 v3 > 4 v4 > ... > > > Thanks > > -- Cumprimentos, Luís Marques
