Advantage of creating Hive partitions when using parquet file storage
<p>Is it any advantage to create Hive partitions when using parquet file storage. Parquet is columnar storage file formats which stores data in column chunks with all the columns stored sequentially by index. When we query select a column based on a predicate, the select column index will jump to the required range based on predicate and print the values. How will partitioning be helpful? In row-oriented hive tables, partitioning is helpful because we'll hit only specified required range of data but Im not able to understand how will it be helpful in parquet storage.</p>
