E-MapReduce:Hudi data source

Prerequisites

• A cluster that contains the Hudi service, such as a DataLake cluster or a custom cluster, is created. For more information, see Create a cluster.

• A cluster that contains the StarRocks service, such as an online analytical processing (OLAP) cluster or a custom cluster, is created, and you have logged on to the cluster. For more information, see Create a cluster and Getting started.

limits

The preceding clusters must be deployed in the same virtual private cloud (VPC) and zone.

Create a Hudi catalog

Syntax

CREATE EXTERNAL CATALOG <catalog_name>
PROPERTIES
( 
  "key"="value", 
  ...
);

Parameter description

• catalog_name: the name of the Hudi catalog. This parameter is required. The name must meet the following requirements:

  • The name can contain letters, digits, and underscores (_). It must start with a letter.

  • The name must be 1 to 64 characters in length.

• PROPERTIES: the properties of the Hudi catalog. This parameter is required. The configurations of this parameter vary based on the metadata service that is used by the Hudi data source. The following information describes the properties that you can configure for different metadata services.

  Property	Required	Description
  type	Yes	The type of the data source. Set the value to hudi.
  hive.metastore.uris	Yes	The URI of the Hive Metastore service. Specify the value in the following format: thrift://<IP address of the Hive Metastore service>:<Port number>. The default port number is 9083. This parameter can be left empty if you use Data Lake Formation (DLF) to store metadata.
  hive.metastore.type	No	The type of the Metastore. By default, this parameter is left empty. This indicates that the Hive Metastore service is used to store metadata. If you want to use DLF to store metadata, set the value to dlf.
  dlf.catalog.id	No	The ID of the DLF catalog from which you want to read data. This parameter is required only if you set the hive.metastore.type parameter to dlf. If you do not configure this parameter, the ID of the default DLF catalog is used.

  • Hive MetaStore

    Property	Required	Description
    type	Yes	The type of the data source. Set the value to hudi.
    hive.metastore.uris	Yes	The URI of the Hive Metastore service. Specify the value in the following format: thrift://<IP address of the Hive Metastore service>:<Port number>. The default port number is 9083.

  • DLF

    For more information, see Access external tables whose metadata is stored in DLF.

Example

Run the following command to create a Hudi catalog named hudi_catalog:

CREATE EXTERNAL CATALOG hudi_catalog
PROPERTIES
(
    "type" = "hudi",
    "hive.metastore.uris" = "thrift://xx.xx.xx.xx:9083"
);

Query data in a Hudi table

You can execute the following statement to query data in a specific table of a database:

SELECT * FROM <catalog_name>.<database_name>.<table_name>;
