Chao created HIVE-8215: -------------------------- Summary: Multi-table insertion optimization #3: use 1+1 tasks instead of 1+N tasks [Spark Branch] Key: HIVE-8215 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-8215 Project: Hive Issue Type: Improvement Components: Spark Reporter: Chao
Currently, for multi-table insertion it generates 1+N tasks - "1" is the task that generates input, and "N" are the insert queries that read from the input and write to separate output tables. In order to make these N tasks run in parallel, we rely on {{hive.exec.parallel}} to be set to {{true}}. In this patch, we propose an alternative approach, which is to combine these N tasks into one single task, which contains N separate operator trees, which in execution leads to N result RDDs. We then may be able to execute these N RDDs in parallel inside Spark, without needing {{hive.exec.parallel}}. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
