Dear Announcer and the vibrant Hive community I must congratulate Hive development and the user community for investing, contributing and keeping a strong Apache Hive Data Warehouse on HDFS.
In July 2016, I made a presentation in conjunction with Hortonworks on the topic of Query Engines for Hive: MR, Spark, Tez with LLAP – Considerations! <https://www.slideshare.net/MichTalebzadeh1/query-engines-for-hive-mr-spark-tez-with-llap-considerations> That was on Hive 1.3.1. I am very glad to see Apache Hive <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_Hive>going strong and indeed being so popular after nearly 11 years from its first release. No doubt Hive is a flagship product and it is an essential part of any storage and ETL work with its versatile architecture in Big Data and Cloud world. Additionally, it is probably the first artifact for many SQL savvy people to make themselves familiar with Big Data. Worth noting that Apache Hive has been a pioneer in supporting additional Big Data tools like Apache Spark <https://spark.apache.org/> whose Spark SQL <https://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/sql-programming-guide.html>is largely built on top of Hive SQL. Google BigQuery Data Warehouse <https://cloud.google.com/bigquery> is built largely from concepts inherited from our humble Apache Hive. I often refer to BigQuery as Hive on steroids. Even Databricks Data Lake <https://databricks.com/glossary/data-lake>has a lot of concepts borrowed from Apache Hive. Looking forward to seeing many happy years with Apache Hive. view my Linkedin profile <https://www.linkedin.com/in/mich-talebzadeh-ph-d-5205b2/> *Disclaimer:* Use it at your own risk.
