Jeff Hammerbacher commented on HIVE-417: ---------------------------------------- Another type of index worth knowing about: the "negative index"/"storage index" from Exadata, described at http://blogs.oracle.com/datawarehousing/2009/09/500gbsec_and_database_machine.html. We get some "negative indexing" for free with partitions, but this may be useful for more "distinctive" scans over columns for which we have not partitioned. > Implement Indexing in Hive > -------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-417 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-417 > Project: Hadoop Hive > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Metastore, Query Processor > Affects Versions: 0.2.0, 0.3.0, 0.3.1, 0.4.0 > Reporter: Prasad Chakka > Assignee: He Yongqiang > Attachments: hive-417.proto.patch, hive-417-2009-07-18.patch > > > Implement indexing on Hive so that lookup and range queries are efficient. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
