A simple example: how to call Python from Hive in HDInsight

Introduction

Hadoop framework distributes code execution automatically in a multi node cluster. This code is also distributed against the dataset. Code development in Hadoop can be done in Java and one has to implement a map function and a reduce function; both manipulate keys and values as inputs and outputs. At a higher level, there are two scripting languages that simplify the code: PIG is a specific scripting language, HIVE looks like SQL. So using HIVE is quite easy. It has a bunch of extension functions (called user defined functions) to transform data like regular expression tools and so on. A developer can add user defined functions, by developing them in Java. Another way to have a procedural logic that complements SQL Set-based language is to use a language like Python:

The goal of that post is to show an example of such a combination.

Here is how that could look on a small cluster. The work load is distributed on the different worker nodes:

At a worker node level, a Python process is created by core. Each process receives its part of the whole dataset:

Windows Azure comes with its Hadoop as a service called HDInsight. This allows to execute HIVE, PIG, and other Map/reduce jobs a few minutes after requesting the creation of a cluster. For HIVE, HDInsight comes with a sample table. Let’s run a HIVE + Python job against that hivesampletable table.

Hive and Python Script

In this example, we use a Python module to calculate the hash of a label in the sample table.

Hive is used to get the data, partition it and send the rows to the Python processes which are created on the different cluster nodes. Here is the code:

 add file simple_sample.py;

SELECT TRANSFORM (clientid, devicemake, devicemodel)
    USING 'D:\Python27\python.exe simple_sample.py' AS 
    (clientid string, phoneLabel string, phoneHash string)
FROM hivesampletable
ORDER BY clientid LIMIT 50;

This can be read has: in the first 50 rows of hivesampletable table, select clientid, devicemake, devicemodel , pass them to the simple_sample.py python script that can be run with D:\Python27\python.exe. The script will send back columns clientid (a string), phoneLabel (a string) and phoneHash (a string).

Hive sends data to the simple_sample.py scripts. Here is the code of that script:

 import sys
import string
import hashlib

while True:
    line = sys.stdin.readline()
    if not line:
        break

    line = string.strip(line, "\n ")
    clientid, devicemake, devicemodel = string.split(line, "\t")
    phone_label = devicemake + ' ' + devicemodel
    print "\t".join([clientid, phone_label, hashlib.md5(phone_label).hexdigest()])

This script expects stdin lines. It parses them, and obtains the columned passed by Hive: clientid, devicemake, devicemodel. From that columns, it deduces the resulting columns: clientid, phoneLabel, phoneHash. In order to calculate phoneHash, it uses an imported module (hashlib). In order to output the result, the python script writes it to stdout, separated by TAB.

Let’s run it with PowerShell

Here is a sample PowerShell script that

  • creates an HDInsight cluster
  • Runs the job
  • Gets the result
  • Removes the cluster

Before running the script, the HIVE and the Python script must have been copied to the the Windows Azure storage:

Here is the PowerShell script:

 Import-Module azure
Add-AzureAccount

$Subscription = 'Azdem169A44055X'
$defaultStorageAccount = 'monstockageazure'
$clusterName = 'monclusterhadoop'
$clusterVersion='2.1'
$clusterAdmin = 'cornac'
$clusterPassword = 'LElzgqy#n87'

$passwd = ConvertTo-SecureString $clusterPassword -AsPlainText -Force
