Introduction
The Simba Apache Hive JDBC Driver with SQL Connector is used for direct SQL and
HiveQL access to Apache Hadoop / Hive distributions, enabling Business Intelligence
(BI), analytics, and reporting on Hadoop / Hive-based data. The driver efficiently
transforms an applications SQL query into the equivalent form in HiveQL, which is a
subset of SQL-92. If an application is Hive-aware, then the driver is configurable to
pass the query through to the database for processing. The driver interrogates Hive to
obtain schema information to present to a SQL-based application. Queries, including
joins, are translated from SQL to HiveQL. For more information about the differences
between HiveQL and SQL, see Features on page 27.
The Simba Apache Hive JDBC Driver with SQL Connector complies with the JDBC
3.0, 4.0 and 4.1 data standards. JDBC is one of the most established and widely
supported APIs for connecting to and working with databases. At the heart of the
technology is the JDBC driver, which connects an application to the database. For
more information about JDBC, see the Data Access Standards Glossary:
http://www.simba.com/resources/data-access-standards-library.
This guide is suitable for users who want to access data residing within Hive from their
desktop environment. Application developers might also find the information helpful.
Refer to your application for details on connecting via JDBC.

Using the Simba Apache Hive JDBC Driver with SQL

Connector
Before you can use the Simba Apache Hive JDBC Driver with SQL Connector, you
must place the SimbaApacheHiveJDBCDriver.lic file in the same directory as
the HiveJDBC3.jar, HiveJDBC4.jar, or HiveJDBC41.jar file.
To access a Hive data store using the Simba Apache Hive JDBC Driver with SQL
Connector, you need to configure the following:
l The class path
l The Driver or DataSource class
l The connection URL for the driver

The Simba Apache Hive JDBC Driver with SQL Connector provides read-only
access to Hive data.

Setting the Class Path

To use the Simba Apache Hive JDBC Driver with SQL Connector, you must set the
class path to include all the JAR files from the ZIP archive containing the driver that
you are using.
The class path is the path that the Java Runtime Environment searches for classes
and other resource files. For more information, see "Setting the Class Path" in the Java
SE Documentation:
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/tools/windows/classpath.html.

Initializing the Driver Class

Before connecting to the data store, you must initialize the appropriate class for the
Hive server and your application.
The following is a list of the classes used to connect the Simba Apache Hive JDBC
Driver with SQL Connector to Hive Server 1 and Hive Server 2 instances. The Driver
classes extend java.sql.Driver, and the DataSource classes extend
javax.sql.DataSource and javax.sql.ConnectionPoolDataSource.
To support JDBC 3.0, classes with the following fully-qualified class names (FQCNs)
are available:
l com.simba.hive.jdbc3.HS1Driver
l com.simba.hive.jdbc3.HS2Driver
l com.simba.hive.jdbc3.HS1DataSource
l com.simba.hive.jdbc3.HS2DataSource

www.simba.com 9
Simba Apache Hive JDBC Driver with SQL
Installation and Configuration Guide
Connector

To support JDBC 4.0, classes with the following FQCNs are available:
l com.simba.hive.jdbc4.HS1Driver
l com.simba.hive.jdbc4.HS2Driver
l com.simba.hive.jdbc4.HS1DataSource
l com.simba.hive.jdbc4.HS2DataSource
To support JDBC 4.1, classes with the following FQCNs are available:
l com.simba.hive.jdbc41.HS1Driver
l com.simba.hive.jdbc41.HS2Driver
l com.simba.hive.jdbc41.HS1DataSource
l com.simba.hive.jdbc41.HS2DataSource
The following sample code shows how to use the DriverManager to establish a
connection:
private static Connection connectViaDM() throws Exception
{
Connection connection = null;
Class.forName(DRIVER_CLASS);
connection = DriverManager.getConnection(CONNECTION_
URL);
return connection;
}
The following sample code shows how to use the DataSource class to establish a
connection:
private static Connection connectViaDS() throws Exception
{
Connection connection = null;
Class.forName(DRIVER_CLASS);
DataSource ds = new com.simba.hive.jdbc4.HS1DataSource
();
ds.setURL(CONNECTION_URL);
connection = ds.getConnection();
return connection;
}

Installation and Configuration Guide
Connector

Building the Connection URL

Use the connection URL to supply connection information to the data source that you
are accessing. The following is the format of the connection URL for the Simba Apache
Hive JDBC Driver with SQL Connector, where [Subprotocol] is hive if you are
connecting to a Hive Server 1 instance or hive2 if you are connecting to a Hive Server
2 instance, [Host] is the DNS or IP address of the Hive server, and [Port] is the number
of the TCPport that the server uses to listen for client requests:
jdbc:[Subprotocol]://[Host]:[Port]
By default, Hive uses port 10000.

By default, the driver uses the schema named default and authenticates the
connection using the user name anonymous.
You can specify optional settings such as the number of the schema to use or any of
the connection properties supported by the driver. For a list of the properties available
in the driver, see Driver Configuration Options on page 30.
If you specify a property that is not supported by the driver, then the driver attempts
to apply the property as a Hive server-side property for the client session. For more
information, see Configuring Server-Side Properties on page 24.
The following is the format of a connection URL that specifies some optional settings:
jdbc:[Subprotocol]://[Host]:[Port]/[Schema];[Property1]=
[Value];[Property2]=[Value];...
For example, to connect to port 11000 on a Hive Server 2 instance installed on the
local machine, use a schema named default2, and authenticate the connection using a
user name and password, you would use the following connection URL:
jdbc:hive2://localhost:11000/default2;AuthMech=3;
UID=simba;PWD=simba
Be aware of the following:
l Properties are case-sensitive.
l Do not duplicate properties in the connection URL.

Note the following:

l If you specify a schema in the connection URL, you can still issue queries on
other schemas by explicitly specifying the schema in the query. To inspect
your databases and determine the appropriate schema to use, run the show
databases command at the Hive command prompt.
l If you set the transportMode property to http, then the port number
specified in the connection URLcorresponds to the HTTPport rather than
the TCPport. By default, Hive servers use 10001 as the HTTPport number.

Configuring Authentication
The Simba Apache Hive JDBC Driver with SQL Connector supports the following
authentication mechanisms:
l No Authentication
l Kerberos
l User Name
l User Name And Password
You configure the authentication mechanism that the driver uses to connect to Hive by
specifying the relevant properties in the connection URL.
For information about selecting an appropriate authentication mechanism when using
the Simba Apache Hive JDBC Driver with SQL Connector, see Authentication Options
on page 14.
For information about the properties you can use in the connection URL, see Driver
Configuration Options on page 30.
In addition to authentication, you can configure the driver to connect over SSL. For
more information, see Configuring SSL on page 23.

Using No Authentication
When connecting to a Hive server of type Hive Server 1, you must use No
Authentication.

To configure a connection without authentication:

1. Set the AuthMech property to 0.
2. Set the transportMode property to binary.
For example:
jdbc:hive2://localhost:10000;AuthMech=0;
transportMode=binary;

Using Kerberos
Kerberos must be installed and configured before you can use this authentication
mechanism. For information about configuring and operating Kerberos on Windows,
see Configuring Kerberos Authentication for Windows on page 16. For other operating
systems, see the MIT Kerberos documentation: http://web.mit.edu/kerberos/krb5-
latest/doc/.

www.simba.com 12
Simba Apache Hive JDBC Driver with SQL
Installation and Configuration Guide
Connector

Note the following:

l This authentication mechanism is available only for Hive Server 2.
l When you use this authentication mechanism, SASL is the only Thrift
transport protocol that is supported. The driver uses SASLby default, so you
do not need to set the transportMode property.

To configure Kerberos authentication:

1. Set the AuthMech property to 1.
2. To use the default realm defined in your Kerberos setup, do not set the
KrbRealm property.
If your Kerberos setup does not define a default realm or if the realm of your Hive
server is not the default, then set the KrbRealm property to the realm of the Hive
server.
3. Set the KrbHostFQDN property to the fully qualified domain name of the Hive
server host.
4. Set the KrbServiceName property to the service name of the Hive server.
For example:
jdbc:hive2://localhost:10000;AuthMech=1;
KrbRealm=EXAMPLE.COM;KrbHostFQDN=hs2.example.com;
KrbServiceName=hive

Using User Name

This authentication mechanism requires a user name but does not require a password.
The user name labels the session, facilitating database tracking.
This authentication mechanism is available only for Hive Server 2. Most default
configurations of Hive Server 2 require User Name authentication.

To configure User Name authentication:

1. Set the AuthMech property to 2.
2. Set the transportMode property to sasl.
3. Set the UID property to an appropriate user name for accessing the Hive server.
For example:
jdbc:hive2://localhost:10000;AuthMech=2;
transportMode=sasl;UID=hs2

Using User Name And Password

This authentication mechanism requires a user name and a password.

www.simba.com 13
Simba Apache Hive JDBC Driver with SQL
Installation and Configuration Guide
Connector

This authentication mechanism is available only for Hive Server 2.

To configure User Name And Password authentication:

1. Set the AuthMech property to 3.
2. Set the transportMode property to the transport protocol that you want to use
in the Thrift layer.
3. If you set the transportMode property to http, then set the httpPath
property to the partial URL corresponding to the Hive server. Otherwise, do not
set the httpPath property.
4. Set the UID property to an appropriate user name for accessing the Hive server.
5. Set the PWD property to the password corresponding to the user name you
provided.
For example:
jdbc:hive2://localhost:10001;AuthMech=3;
transportMode=http;httpPath=cliservice;UID=hs2;
PWD=simba

Authentication Options
Hive Server 1 does not support authentication. You must configure the driver to use No
Authentication.
Hive Server 2 supports the following authentication mechanisms:
l No Authentication
l Kerberos
l User Name
l User Name And Password
Most default configurations of Hive Server 2 require User Name authentication. If you
are unable to connect to your Hive server using User Name authentication, then verify
the authentication mechanism configured for your Hive server by examining the hive-
site.xml file. Examine the following properties to determine which authentication
mechanism your server is set to use:
l hive.server2.authentication: This property sets the authentication
mode for Hive Server 2. The following values are available:
o NOSASL disables the Simple Authentication and Security Layer (SASL).

o KERBEROS enables Kerberos authentication.

o NONE enables plain SASL transport. NONE is the default value.

o PLAINSASL enables user name and password authentication using a

cleartext password mechanism.

www.simba.com 14
Simba Apache Hive JDBC Driver with SQL
Installation and Configuration Guide
Connector

l hive.server2.enable.doAs: If this property is set to the default value of

TRUE, then Hive processes queries as the user who submitted the query. If this
property is set to FALSE, then queries are run as the user that runs the
hiveserver2 process.
The following table lists the authentication mechanisms to configure for the driver
based on the settings in the hive-site.xml file.

Driver Authentication Mech-

hive.server2.authentication hive.server2.enable.doAs
anism

NOSASL FALSE No Authentication

KERBEROS TRUE or FALSE Kerberos

NONE TRUE or FALSE User Name

LDAP TRUE or FALSE User Name And

Password

It is an error to set hive.server2.authentication to NOSASL and

hive.server2.enable.doAs to true. This configuration will not prevent the
service from starting up, but results in an unusable service.
For more information about authentication mechanisms, refer to the documentation for
your Hadoop / Hive distribution. See also "Running Hadoop in Secure Mode" in the
Apache Hadoop documentation:http://hadoop.apache.org/docs/r0.23.7/hadoop-
project-dist/hadoop-common/ClusterSetup.html#Running_Hadoop_in_Secure_Mode.

Using No Authentication
When hive.server2.authentication is set to NOSASL, you must configure
your connection to use No Authentication.

Using Kerberos
When connecting to a Hive server of type Hive Server 2 and
hive.server2.authentication is set to KERBEROS, you must configure your
connection to use Kerberos authentication.

Using User Name

When connecting to a Hive server of type Hive Server 2 and
hive.server2.authentication is set to NONE, you must configure your
connection to use User Name authentication. Validation of the credentials that you
include depends on hive.server2.enable.doAs:

www.simba.com 15
Simba Apache Hive JDBC Driver with SQL
Installation and Configuration Guide
Connector

l If hive.server2.enable.doAs is set to TRUE, then the user name in the

driver configuration must be an existing operating system user on the host that is
running Hive Server 2.
l If hive.server2.enable.doAs is set to FALSE, then the user name in the
driver configuration is ignored.
If no user name is specified in the driver configuration, then the driver defaults to using
hive as the user name.

Using User Name And Password

When connecting to a Hive server of type Hive Server 2 and the server is configured to
use the SASL-PLAIN authentication mechanism with a user name and a password,
you must configure your connection to use User Name And Password authentication.

Configuring Kerberos Authentication for Windows

You can configure your Kerberos setup so that you use the MIT Kerberos Ticket
Manager to get the Ticket Granting Ticket (TGT), or configure the setup so that you can
use the driver to get the ticket directly from the Key Distribution Center (KDC). Also, if a
client application obtains a Subject with a TGT, it is possible to use that Subject to
authenticate the connection.

Downloading and Installing MIT Kerberos for Windows

To download and install MIT Kerberos for Windows 4.0.1:
1. Download the appropriate Kerberos installer:
l For a 64-bit machine, use the following download link from the MIT

Authenticating to the Hive Server
To authenticate to the Hive server:
Use a connection URL that has the following properties defined:
l AuthMech
l KrbHostFQDN
l KrbRealm
l KrbServiceName
For detailed information about these properties, see Driver Configuration Options
on page 30.

Using an Existing Subject to Authenticate the Connection

If the client application obtains a Subject with a TGT, then that Subject can be used to
authenticate the connection to the server.

To use an existing Subject to authenticate the connection:

1. Create a PrivilegedAction for establishing the connection to the database.
For example:
// Contains logic to be executed as a privileged
action
public class AuthenticateDriverAction
implements PrivilegedAction<Void>
{
// The connection, which is established as a
// PrivilegedAction
Connection con;

// Define a string as the connection URL

static String ConnectionURL =
"jdbc:hive2://192.168.1.1:10000";

www.simba.com 19
Simba Apache Hive JDBC Driver with SQL
Installation and Configuration Guide
Connector

/**
* Logic executed in this method will have access to
the
* Subject that is used to "doAs". The driver will get
* the Subject and use it for establishing a connection
* with the server.
*/
@Override
public Void run()
{
try
{
// Establish a connection using the connection URL
con = DriverManager.getConnection(ConnectionURL);
}
catch (SQLException e)
{
// Handle errors that are encountered during
// interaction with the data store
e.printStackTrace();
}
catch (Exception e)
{
// Handle other errors
e.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
}
}

www.simba.com 20
Simba Apache Hive JDBC Driver with SQL
Installation and Configuration Guide
Connector

2. Run the PrivilegedAction using the existing Subject, and then use the
connection.
For example:
// Create the action
AuthenticateDriverAction authenticateAction = new
AuthenticateDriverAction();
// Establish the connection using the Subject for
// authentication.
Subject.doAs(loginConfig.getSubject(),
authenticateAction);
// Use the established connection.
authenticateAction.con;

Kerberos Encryption Strength and the JCE Policy Files Extension

If the encryption being used in your Kerberos environment is too strong, you might
encounter the error message "Unable to connect to server: GSS initiate failed" when
trying to use the driver to connect to a Kerberos-enabled cluster. Typically, Java
vendors only allow encryption strength up to 128 bits by default. If you are using
greater encryption strength in your environment (for example, 256-bit encryption), then
you might encounter this error.

Diagnosing the Issue

If you encounter the error message "Unable to connect to server: GSS initiate failed",
confirm that it is occurring due to encryption strength by enabling Kerberos layer
logging in the JVM and then checking if the log output contains the error message
"KrbException: Illegal key size".

To enable Kerberos layer logging in a Sun JVM:

Choose one:
l In the Java command you use to start the application, pass in the following
argument:
-Dsun.security.krb5.debug=true
l Or, add the following code to the source code of your application:
System.setProperty
("sun.security.krb5.debug","true")

www.simba.com 21
Simba Apache Hive JDBC Driver with SQL
Installation and Configuration Guide
Connector

To enable Kerberos layer logging in an IBM JVM:

Choose one:
l In the Java command you use to start the application, pass in the following
arguments:
-Dcom.ibm.security.krb5.Krb5Debug=all
-Dcom.ibm.security.jgss.debug=all
l Or, add the following code to the source code of your application:
System.setProperty
("com.ibm.security.krb5.Krb5Debug","all");
System.setProperty
("com.ibm.security.jgss.debug","all");

Resolving the Issue

After you confirm that the error is occurring due to encryption strength, you can resolve
the issue by downloading and installing the Java Cryptography Extension (JCE)
Unlimited Strength Jurisdiction Policy Files extension from your Java vendor. Refer to
the instructions from the vendor to install the files to the correct location.
Consult your companys policy to make sure that you are allowed to enable
encryption strengths in your environment that are greater than what the JVM
allows by default.
If the issue is not resolved after you install the JCE policy files extension, then restart
your machine and try your connection again. If the issue persists even after you restart
your machine, then verify which directories the JVM is searching to find the JCE policy
files extension. To print out the search paths that your JVM currently uses to find the

Configuring SSL
If you are connecting to a Hive server that has Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) enabled,
then you can configure the driver to connect to an SSL-enabled socket.
SSL connections require a KeyStore and a TrustStore. You can create a TrustStore
and configure the driver to use it, or allow the driver to use one of the default
TrustStores. If you do not configure the driver to use a specific TrustStore, then the
driver uses the Java TrustStore jssecacerts. If jssecacerts is not available, then the
driver uses cacerts instead.

To configure SSL:
1. Create a KeyStore and configure the driver to use it:
a. Create a KeyStore containing your signed, trusted SSL certificate.
b. Set the SSLKeyStore property to the full path of the KeyStore, including
the file name.
c. Set the SSLKeyStorePwd property to the password for the KeyStore.
2. Optionally, create a TrustStore and configure the driver to use it:
a. Create a TrustStore containing your signed, trusted SSL certificate.
b. Set the SSLTrustStore property to the full path of the TrustStore,
including the file name.
c. Set the SSLTrustStorePwd property to the password for the TrustStore.
3. Set the SSL property to 1.
4. Optionally, to disable host name verification, set the AllowAllHostNames
property to 1.
For security reasons, it is strongly recommended that you do not disable host
name verification.
5. Optionally, to allow the SSL certificate used by the server to be self-signed, set
the AllowSelfSignedCerts property to 1.
6. Optionally, to allow the common name of a CA-issued certificate to not match the
host name of the Hive server, set the CAIssuedCertNamesMismatch
property to 1.
For self-signed certificates, the driver always allows the common name of the
certificate to not match the host name.

For example:
jdbc:hive2://localhost:10000;AuthMech=3;SSL=1;
SSLKeyStore=C:\\Users\\bsmith\\Desktop\\keystore.jks;
SSLKeyStorePwd=*****;UID=hs2;PWD=*****
For more information about the connection properties used in SSL connections,

Configuring Server-Side Properties

You can use the driver to apply configuration properties to the Hive server by setting
the properties in the connection URL.
For example, to set the mapreduce.job.queuename property to myQueue, you
would use a connection URLsuch as the following:
jdbc:hive://localhost:18000/default2;AuthMech=3;
UID=simba;PWD=simba;mapreduce.job.queuename=myQueue
For a list of all Hadoop and Hive server-side properties that your implementation
supports, run the set -v command at the Hive CLI command line or Beeline. You
can also execute the set -v query after connecting using the driver.

Configuring Logging
To help troubleshoot issues, you can enable logging in the driver.
Only enable logging long enough to capture an issue. Logging decreases
performance and can consume a large quantity of disk space.
Set the LogLevel key in your connection URL to enable logging and specify the
amount of detail included in log files. The following table lists the logging levels
provided by the Simba Apache Hive JDBC Driver with SQL Connector, in order from
least verbose to most verbose.

LogLevel Value Description

0 Disable all logging.

1 Log severe error events that lead the driver to abort.

2 Log error events that might allow the driver to continue run-
ning.

3 Log potentially harmful situations.

4 Log general information that describes the progress of the

driver.

5 Log detailed information that is useful for debugging the

driver.

6 Log all driver activity.

To enable logging:
1. Set the LogLevel property to the desired level of information to include in log
files.
2. Set the LogPath property to the full path to the folder where you want to save
log files.
For example, the following connection URLenables logging level 3 and saves
the log files in the C:\temp folder:
jdbc:hive://localhost:11000;LogLevel=3;LogPath=C:\temp
3. To make sure that the new settings take effect, restart your JDBC application and
reconnect to the server.

www.simba.com 25
Simba Apache Hive JDBC Driver with SQL
Installation and Configuration Guide
Connector

The Simba Apache Hive JDBC Driver with SQL Connector produces the
following log files in the location specified in the LogPath property:
l A HiveJDBC_driver.log file that logs driver activity that is not specific

to a connection.
l A HiveJDBC_connection_[Number].log file for each connection

made to the database, where [Number] is a number that identifies each log
file. This file logs driver activity that is specific to the connection.
If the LogPath value is invalid, then the driver sends the logged information to the
standard output stream (System.out).

To disable logging:
1. Remove the LogLevel and LogPath properties from the connection URL.
2. To make sure that the new settings take effect, restart your JDBC application and
reconnect to the server.

Features
More information is provided on the following features of the Simba Apache Hive
JDBC Driver with SQL Connector:
l SQL Query versus HiveQL Query on page 27
l Data Types on page 27
l Catalog and Schema Support on page 28

SQL Query versus HiveQL Query

The native query language supported by Hive is HiveQL. HiveQL is a subset of SQL-
92. However, the syntax is different enough that most applications do not work with
native HiveQL.

Data Types
The Simba Apache Hive JDBC Driver with SQL Connector supports many common
data formats, converting between Hive, SQL, and Java data types.
The following table lists the supported data type mappings.

Hive Type SQL Type Java Type

BIGINT BIGINT java.math.BigInteger

BINARY VARBINARY byte[]

BOOLEAN BOOLEAN Boolean

CHAR CHAR String

(Available only in Hive
0.13.0 or later)

DATE DATE java.sql.Date

DECIMAL DECIMAL java.math.BigDecimal

(In Hive 0.13 and later,
you can specify scale and
precision when creating
tables using the
DECIMAL data type.)

www.simba.com 27
Simba Apache Hive JDBC Driver with SQL
Installation and Configuration Guide
Connector

Hive Type SQL Type Java Type

DOUBLE DOUBLE Double

FLOAT REAL Float

INT INTEGER Long

SMALLINT SMALLINT Integer

TIMESTAMP TIMESTAMP java.sql.Timestamp

TINYINT TINYINT Short

VARCHAR VARCHAR String

(Available only in Hive
0.12.0 or later)

The aggregate types (ARRAY, MAP, STRUCT, and UNIONTYPE) are not yet
supported. Columns of aggregate types are treated as VARCHAR columns in SQL and
STRING columns in Java.

Catalog and Schema Support

The Simba Apache Hive JDBC Driver with SQL Connector supports both catalogs and
schemas to make it easy for the driver to work with various JDBC applications. Since
Hive only organizes tables into schemas/databases, the driver provides a synthetic
catalog named HIVE under which all of the schemas/databases are organized. The
driver also maps the JDBC schema to the Hive schema/database.
By default, Hive catalogs are treated as schemas in the driver as a restriction for
filtering. To configure the driver to treat Hive catalogs as catalogs and Hive
schemas as schemas, set the CatalogSchemaSwitch connection property to 0.
