Apache Hive vs. Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse

Apache Hive shines for ad-hoc analysis and plugging into BI tools. Its SQL-like syntax allows for ease of use not for only for engineers but also for data analysts. Through our experience, there are probably more desirable tools to use if you are planning on integrating Hive into your processing pipeline.

II would recommend Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse to someone looking to fully automate the transferring of data especially in a warehouse scenario though I can see the elasticity of the suite that is offered and can see it is applicable in other scenarios not just warehouses.

• Hive syntax is almost like SQL, so for someone already familiar with SQL it takes almost no effort to pick up Hive.
• To be able to run map reduce jobs using json parsing and generate dynamic partitions in parquet file format.
• Simplifies your experience with Hadoop especially for non-technical/coding partners.

• Very easy and fast to load data into the Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse
• Exceptionally fast retrieval of data joining 100 million row table with a billion row table plus the size of the database was reduced by a factor of 10 due to how Oracle store[s] and organise[s] data and indexes.
• Flexibility with scaling up and down CPU on the fly when needed, and just stop it when not needed so you don't get charged when it is not running.
• It is always patched and always available and you can add storage dynamically as you need it.

• Use Hive for analytical work loads. Write once and read many scenarios. Do not prefer updates and deletes.
• Behind scenes Hive creates map reduce jobs. Hive performance is slow compared to Apache Spark.
• Map reduce writes the intermediate outputs to dial whereas Spark operates in in-memory and uses DAG.

• Level of integration or compatibility to connect it to different applications can be improved
• The support service is slow
• The issue is with the record number limitation of not being able to bring back more than one million records or not being able to export larger datasets to Excel

Since I do not know the second data warehouse solution that integrate with HDFS as well as Hive.

Because

• It is really simple to provision and configure.
• Does not require continous attention from the DBA, autonomous features allows the database to perform most of the regular admin tasks without need for human intervention.
• Allows to integrate multiple data sources on a central data warehouse, and explode the information stored with different analytic and reporting tools.

Hive is a very good big data analysis and ad-hoc query platform, which supports scaling also. The BI processes can be easily integrated with Hadoop via the Hive. It can deal with a much larger data set that traditional RDBMS can not. It is a "must-have" component of the big data domain.

Apache Hive is a FOSS project and its open source. We need not definitely comment on anything about the support of open source and its developer community. But, it has got tremendous developer support, awesome documentation. I would justify the fact that much support can be gathered from the community backup.

Understanding Oracle Cloud Infrastructure is really simple, and Autonomous databases are even more. Using shared or dedicated infrastructure is one of the few things you need to consider at the moment of starting provisioning your Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse.

We have used a simple but necessary function such as merging certain data tables, which although they may be from different areas, complement each other or are necessary, you can use metadata if what you need is to validate the origin of your information and what impact it has, is also feasible.

Our organization adopted Oracle almost 20 years ago and there were a few options at that time. Oracle was the leading database tech company at that time and it was a safe choice to us. And they have been evolved and always ahead of new technologies, high performance, and professional business support. We didn't find a good reason to replace Oracle with any other competitors.

• Good ROI for being able to access data easily across the network, we have large amounts of data and this is a good system to access it
• Good ROI for being easy to learn how to use for new employees, not much time spent which saves costs
• Good ROI for being able to integrate with Spark and other applications, hence data can be analyzed through programs

• Overall the business objective of all of our clients have been met positively with Oracle Data Warehouse. All of the required analysis the users were able to successfully carry out using the warehouse data.
• Using a 3-tier architecture with the Oracle Data Warehouse at the back end the mid-tier has been integrated well. This is big plus in providing the necessary tools for end users of the data warehouse to carry out their analysis.
• All of the various BI products (OBIEE, Cognos, etc.) are able to use and exploit the various analytic built-in functionalities of the Oracle Data Warehouse.
