Another solution would be

Using shell script do following

1.       unzip txt files,

2.       one by one merge those 50 (or N number of) text files into one text 
file,

3.       then the zip/tar that bigger text file,

4.       then that big zip/tar file can be uploaded into hive.

This could be a problem. Hive uses newline as the record separator. A ZIP file 
will certainly newline characters. So I doubt this is possible.

BUT, I would like to hear from anyone who has solved the "newline is always a 
record separator" problem, because we ran into it for another type of 
compressed file.

Hivers,

I want to understand that would it be possible to utilize zip/tar files 
directly into Hive. All the files has similar schema (structure).  Say 50 *.txt 
files are zipped into a single zip file can we load data directly from this zip 
file OR should we need to unzip first?

Thanks & Regards
