How to use Hive Catalog with Apache Flink® on HDInsight on AKS

Note

We will retire Azure HDInsight on AKS on January 31, 2025. Before January 31, 2025, you will need to migrate your workloads to Microsoft Fabric or an equivalent Azure product to avoid abrupt termination of your workloads. The remaining clusters on your subscription will be stopped and removed from the host.

Only basic support will be available until the retirement date.

Important

This feature is currently in preview. The Supplemental Terms of Use for Microsoft Azure Previews include more legal terms that apply to Azure features that are in beta, in preview, or otherwise not yet released into general availability. For information about this specific preview, see Azure HDInsight on AKS preview information. For questions or feature suggestions, please submit a request on AskHDInsight with the details and follow us for more updates on Azure HDInsight Community.

This example uses Hive’s Metastore as a persistent catalog with Apache Flink’s Hive Catalog. We use this functionality for storing Kafka table and MySQL table metadata on Flink across sessions. Flink uses Kafka table registered in Hive Catalog as a source, perform some lookup and sink result to MySQL database

Prerequisites

Flink offers a two-fold integration with Hive.

  • The first step is to use Hive Metastore (HMS) as a persistent catalog with Flink’s HiveCatalog for storing Flink specific metadata across sessions.
    • For example, users can store their Kafka or ElasticSearch tables in Hive Metastore by using HiveCatalog, and reuse them later on in SQL queries.
  • The second is to offer Flink as an alternative engine for reading and writing Hive tables.
  • The HiveCatalog is designed to be “out of the box” compatible with existing Hive installations. You don't need to modify your existing Hive Metastore or change the data placement or partitioning of your tables.

For more information, see Apache Hive

Environment preparation

Lets create an Apache Flink cluster with HMS on Azure portal, you can refer to the detailed instructions on Flink cluster creation.

Screenshot showing how to create Flink cluster.

After cluster creation, check HMS is running or not on AKS side.

Prepare user order transaction data Kafka topic on HDInsight

Download the kafka client jar using the following command:

wget https://archive.apache.org/dist/kafka/3.2.0/kafka_2.12-3.2.0.tgz

Untar the tar file with

tar -xvf kafka_2.12-3.2.0.tgz

Produce the messages to the Kafka topic.

Screenshot showing how to produce messages to Kafka topic.

Other commands:

Note

You're required to replace bootstrap-server with your own kafka brokers host name or IP

--- delete topic
./kafka-topics.sh --delete --topic user_orders --bootstrap-server wn0-contsk:9092

--- create topic
./kafka-topics.sh --create --replication-factor 2 --partitions 3 --topic user_orders  --bootstrap-server wn0-contsk:9092

--- produce topic
./kafka-console-producer.sh --bootstrap-server wn0-contsk:9092 --topic user_orders

--- consumer topic
./kafka-console-consumer.sh --bootstrap-server wn0-contsk:9092 --topic user_orders --from-beginning

Using SSH download required Kafka connector and MySQL Database jars

Note

Download the correct version jar according to our HDInsight kafka version and MySQL version.

wget https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/flink/flink-connector-jdbc/3.1.0-1.17/flink-connector-jdbc-3.1.0-1.17.jar
wget https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/mysql/mysql-connector-j/8.0.33/mysql-connector-j-8.0.33.jar
wget https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/kafka/kafka-clients/3.2.0/kafka-clients-3.2.0.jar
wget https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/flink/flink-connector-kafka/1.17.0/flink-connector-kafka-1.17.0.jar

Moving the planner jar

Move the jar flink-table-planner_2.12-1.17.0-....jar located in webssh pod's /opt to /lib and move out the jar flink-table-planner-loader1.17.0-....jar /opt/flink-webssh/opt/ from /lib. Refer to issue for more details. Perform the following steps to move the planner jar.

mv /opt/flink-webssh/lib/flink-table-planner-loader-1.17.0-*.*.*.*.jar /opt/flink-webssh/opt/
mv /opt/flink-webssh/opt/flink-table-planner_2.12-1.17.0-*.*.*.*.jar /opt/flink-webssh/lib/

Note

An extra planner jar moving is only needed when using Hive dialect or HiveServer2 endpoint. However, this is the recommended setup for Hive integration.

Validation

bin/sql-client.sh -j flink-connector-jdbc-3.1.0-1.17.jar -j mysql-connector-j-8.0.33.jar -j kafka-clients-3.2.0.jar -j flink-connector-kafka-1.17.0.jar

Note

As we already use Flink cluster with Hive Metastore, there is no need to perform any additional configurations.
