Setup Guide

Follow these steps to connect Apache Hive to your CData Connect account:

  1. Open the Connections page of the CData Connect dashboard.

  2. Click + Add Connection in the upper-right corner.

  3. Type Apache Hive into the search field, then click the data source name.

  4. On the Basic Settings tab of the new connection, enter a connection name or keep the default name.

  5. Enter the Transport Mode to use for communicating with the Hive server: HTTP or BINARY.

  6. For HTTP transport mode only, enter the HTTP Path, available in the ‘hive.server2.thrift.http.path’ property of your Hive configuration file (hive.site.xml).

  7. Select an Auth Scheme for use in connecting to Apache Hive. Select the option that matches the configuration of the HiveServer2. Follow the relevant instructions below.

Authentication Methods

Plain

  1. Enter the following information:

    • User—the Apache Hive username for authentication.

    • Password—the user password.

    • Port—the port for connecting to the Apache Hive server. If using HTTP transport mode, set Port to the value in the ‘hive.server2.thrift.http.port’ property of the Hive configuration file (hive.site.xml).

    • Server—the host name or IP address of the server hosting HiveServer2.

    • Database—(optional) the Apache Hive database to use. If left empty, the connection uses the default Apache Hive database.

  2. At the top of the CData Connect Add Apache Hive Connection page, click Save & Test.

    • If the connection test succeeds, a message indicates that your connection has been created.

    • If the connection test fails, ensure that you entered your login information correctly with no stray spaces or other characters. Then, try again.
