Integrating DataFlow with Apache Hive
New features in Apache Hive 2.0.0 are detailed at https://bigdata-madesimple.com/10-new-exciting-features-in-apache-hive-2-0-0/. Hive installation instructions and DML operation are documented at https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/GettingStarted#GettingStarted-InstallationandConfiguration. Note that the Hive version 2.X.X release parquet package has been moved inside the org.apache package.
The following cluster types support these Hive versions:

HiveServer2 support was introduced in the 0.11.0 release. HiveServer2 supports the Rest API. You can use tools such as Beeline to connect from any client outside of your cluster to the Hive database. In a secured environment, Beeline (the Hive Rest API client) will connect through a Knox gateway. HiveServer2 provides more security and multiple Beeline connections. Advantages of HiveServer2 over HiveServer1 include:
• HiveServer2 Thrift API specification
• JDBC/ODBC HiveServer2 drivers
• Concurrent Thrift clients with memory leak fixes and session/configuration information
• Kerberos authentication
• Authorization to improve GRANT/ROLE and code injection vectors
