Is Avro Supported? |
|
Answer» Yes, Avro is supported. Impala has always been able to query Avro tables. You can USE the Impala LOAD DATAstatement to load existing Avro data files into a table. STARTING with Impala 1.4, you can create Avro tables with Impala. Currently, you STILL use the INSERT statement in Hive to COPY data from another table into an Avro table. Yes, Avro is supported.
