Reading data from the Hive data source

You can configure the Hive Connector stage to connect to a Hive data source and read data from it.

The following figure shows an example of using the Hive Connector stage to read data. In this example, the Hive Connector stage reads data from a Hive data source, and the Sequential File stage writes the data to a file. When you configure the Hive Connector stage to read data, you create an output link, to transfer the rows from the Hive Connector stage to the Sequential File stage, as shown in the figure below:
