Hive update functionality for External tables

+2 votes
277 views

With the version 0.14 Hive supports Update functionality. I have tried updating a internal table and it works just like RDBMS Update command( though it takes more time to update).

Please let me know if it is possible to UPDATE the EXTERNAL TABLES IN HIVE.
