Alan Gates created HIVE-10459: --------------------------------- Summary: Add materialized views to Hive Key: HIVE-10459 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-10459 Project: Hive Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Alan Gates Assignee: Alan Gates
Materialized views are useful as ways to store either alternate versions of data (e.g. same data, different sort order) or derivatives of data sets (e.g. commonly used aggregates). It is useful to store these as materialized views rather than as tables because it can give the optimizer the ability to understand how data sets are related. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
