Hello,
I am using Hive-0.7.1. I want to append the data in table.
Is hive-0.7.1 support appending feature or just support OVERWRITE feature?
When I tried for the appending, the query is not working.

What should I do in such case so that I append the data in table?

Hello  Bhavesh Shah:

 Appending feature  (insert into ) not supported in hive-0.7.*

three  ways ：
1:hadoop fs -put localfile hdfs:/.../.../table_dir/partiton_dir/
2:use hive-0.8
3: patch your hive with https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-306

Load data inpath will append data into Hive table .. this feature is also
supported in Hive-0.7.*.

Ex: load data local inpath './examples/files/kv1.txt' into table test1;

This commad will append data into test1 table.

Hi Aniket/Bhavesh,

Actually load data inpath is used for appending file and the path refers to the HDFS path.
We can use load data local inpath  in case the input file to be loaded is not in HDFS but it is present in the local system.

Both of these append the data. In case, you need to overwrite the data, use
load data inpath '/foo/write/bar.txt' OVERWRITE into table tblname;
OR
load data local inpath '/foo/write/bar.txt' OVERWRITE into table tblname; (in case the input file to be loaded is not in HDFS but it is present in the local system)

Regards,
Krishnan

Please note:

LOAD DATA LOCAL assumes the data in the given local path (maybe /tmp/data) and copy the data into hive's warehouse-dir
LOAD DATA /path moves the date from an given path in HDFS into hive's warehouse-dir

When you want to append data into an table you have to use partitioning.

best,
 Alex
