Hive connector with Alluxio#
The Hive connector can read and write tables stored in the Alluxio Data Orchestration
System,
leveraging Alluxio’s distributed block-level read/write caching functionality.
The tables must be created in the Hive metastore with the alluxio://
location prefix (see Running Apache Hive with Alluxio
for details and examples).
Trino queries will then transparently retrieve and cache files or objects from a variety of disparate storage systems including HDFS and S3.
