Reg : Efficiency among query optimizers in hive
问题 After reading about query optimization techniques I came to know about the below techniques. 1. Indexing - bitmap and BTree 2. Partitioning 3. Bucketing I got the difference between partitioning and bucketing, and when to use them but I'm still confused how indexes actually work. Where is the metadata for index is stored? Is it the namenode which is storing it? I.e., actually while creating partitions or buckets we can see multiple directories in hdfs which explains the query performance
