Feature support

  • Does not support HDFS encryption in Hive tables.

  • Does not support LLAP with Hive-3.1.3 because Apache Slider is not an HPE supported ecosystem component.

  • Starting from Hive 2.1, Hive must run the schematool command as an initialization step.

  • Starting from EEP 9.1.0, you can enable Hive to work with JDK 17. See Considerations for JDK 17.

  • Starting from EEP 9.0.0, Data Fabric supports Ranger, which can be integrated with HiveServer2. For more information, see Integrating HiveServer2 with Ranger.
