The Flink-Hive Integration

Bowen Li takes us through Apache Flink 1.10’s integration with Apache Hive:

On the other hand, Apache Hive has established itself as a focal point of the data warehousing ecosystem. It serves as not only a SQL engine for big data analytics and ETL, but also a data management platform, where data is discovered and defined. As business evolves, it puts new requirements on data warehouse.

Thus we started integrating Flink and Hive as a beta version in Flink 1.9. Over the past few months, we have been listening to users’ requests and feedback, extensively enhancing our product, and running rigorous benchmarks (which will be published soon separately). I’m glad to announce that the integration between Flink and Hive is at production grade in Flink 1.10 and we can’t wait to walk you through the details.
