Deploying Hive Metastore

Apache Hive is a client-side library that provides a table-like abstraction on top of the data in HDFS for data processing. Hive jobs are converted into a map reduce plan, which is then submitted to the Hadoop cluster. Hadoop cluster is the set of nodes or machines with HDFS, MapReduce, and YARN deployed on these machines. MapReduce works on the distributed data stored in HDFS and processes a large datasets in parallel, as compared with traditional processing engines that process whole task on a single machine and wait for hours or days for a single query. Yet Another Resource Negotiator (YARN) is used to manage RAM the and CPU cores of the whole cluster, which are critical for running any process on a node.
