The fix for HIVE-3140 started indenting multi-line comments, which breaks Impala testing when run against Hive 2.1.1. To test this using the pure test runner proved difficult since it would require extensive changes to support both row_regexes (since the columns changed order) and subset support (since the number of rows changed). Instead, we manually verify the hints are present in the output in the python test. The fact that the hints have been reformatted leaves us in an uncertain state as to whether they actually get applied, so a new test case has been added to run EXPLAIN SELECT on the view and verify the joins happen exactly as we expect. Testing: Ran the views-ddl test against Impala mini-cluster setups using both Hive 2.1.1 and Hive 1.1.0 Change-Id: I49e53b1230520ca6e850af28078526e6627d69de Reviewed-on: http://gerrit.cloudera.org:8080/8719 Reviewed-by: Alex Behm <alex.behm@cloudera.com> Tested-by: Impala Public Jenkins
Welcome to Impala
Lightning-fast, distributed SQL queries for petabytes of data stored in Apache Hadoop clusters.
Impala is a modern, massively-distributed, massively-parallel, C++ query engine that lets you analyze, transform and combine data from a variety of data sources:
- Best of breed performance and scalability.
- Support for data stored in HDFS, Apache HBase and Amazon S3.
- Wide analytic SQL support, including window functions and subqueries.
- On-the-fly code generation using LLVM to generate CPU-efficient code tailored specifically to each individual query.
- Support for the most commonly-used Hadoop file formats, including the Apache Parquet project.
- Apache-licensed, 100% open source.

Supported Platforms
Impala only supports Linux at the moment.
Export Control Notice
This distribution uses cryptographic software and may be subject to export controls. Please refer to EXPORT_CONTROL.md for more information.
Build Instructions
See bin/bootstrap_build.sh.
Detailed Build Notes
Impala can be built with pre-built components, downloaded from S3, or can be built with an in-place toolchain located in the thirdparty directory (not recommended). The components needed to build Impala are Apache Hadoop, Hive, HBase, and Sentry. If you need to manually override the locations or versions of these components, you can do so through the environment variables and scripts listed below.
Scripts and directories
| Location | Purpose |
|---|---|
| bin/impala-config.sh | This script must be sourced to setup all environment variables properly to allow other scripts to work |
| bin/impala-config-local.sh | A script can be created in this location to set local overrides for any environment variables |
| bin/impala-config-branch.sh | A version of the above that can be checked into a branch for convenience. |
| bin/bootstrap_build.sh | A helper script to bootstrap some of the build requirements. |
| bin/bootstrap_development.sh | A helper script to bootstrap a developer environment. Please read it before using. |
| be/build/ | Impala build output goes here. |
| be/generated-sources/ | Thrift and other generated source will be found here. |
