这两个执行计划树里面包含这条sql语句的 operator:
map端第一个操作肯定是加载表,所以就是 TableScan 表扫描操作,常见的属性:
alias: 表名称
Statistics: 表统计信息,包含表中数据条数,数据大小等
Select Operator: 选取操作,常见的属性 :
expressions:需要的字段名称及字段类型
outputColumnNames:输出的列名称
Statistics:表统计信息,包含表中数据条数,数据大小等
Group By Operator:分组聚合操作,常见的属性:
aggregations:显示聚合函数信息
mode:聚合模式,值有 hash:随机聚合,就是hash partition;partial:局部聚合;final:最终聚合
keys:分组的字段,如果没有分组,则没有此字段
outputColumnNames:聚合之后输出列名
Statistics: 表统计信息,包含分组聚合之后的数据条数,数据大小等
Reduce Output Operator:输出到reduce操作,常见属性:
sort order:值为空 不排序;值为 + 正序排序,值为 - 倒序排序;值为 +- 排序的列为两列,第一列为正序,第二列为倒序
Filter Operator:过滤操作,常见的属性:
predicate:过滤条件,如sql语句中的where id>=1,则此处显示(id >= 1)
Map Join Operator:join 操作,常见的属性:
condition map:join方式 ,如Inner Join 0 to 1 Left Outer Join0 to 2
keys: join 的条件字段
outputColumnNames: join 完成之后输出的字段
Statistics: join 完成之后生成的数据条数,大小等
File Output Operator:文件输出操作,常见的属性
compressed:是否压缩
table:表的信息,包含输入输出文件格式化方式,序列化方式等
Fetch Operator 客户端获取数据操作,常见的属性:
limit,值为 -1 表示不限制条数,其他值为限制的条数
好,学到这里再翻到上面 explain 的查询结果,是不是感觉基本都能看懂了。
实践
本节介绍 explain 能够为我们在生产实践中带来哪些便利及解决我们哪些迷惑
1. join 语句会过滤 null 的值吗?
现在,我们在hive cli 输入以下查询计划语句
select a.id,b.user_name from test1 a join test2 b on a.id=b.id;
问:上面这条 join 语句会过滤 id 为 null 的值吗
执行下面语句:
explain select a.id,b.user_name from test1 a join test2 b on a.id=b.id;
我们来看结果 (为了适应页面展示,仅截取了部分输出信息):
TableScan
alias: a
Statistics: Num rows: 6 Data size: 75 Basic stats: COMPLETE Column stats: NONE
Filter Operator
predicate: id is not null (type: boolean)
Statistics: Num rows: 6 Data size: 75 Basic stats: COMPLETE Column stats: NONE
Select Operator
expressions: id (type: int)
outputColumnNames: _col0
Statistics: Num rows: 6 Data size: 75 Basic stats: COMPLETE Column stats: NONE
HashTable Sink Operator
keys:
0 _col0 (type: int)
1 _col0 (type: int)
...
从上述结果可以看到 predicate: id is not null 这样一行,说明 join 时会自动过滤掉关联字段为 null值的情况,但 left join 或 full join 是不会自动过滤的,大家可以自行尝试下。
2. group by 分组语句会进行排序吗?
看下面这条sql
select id,max(user_name) from test1 group by id;
问:group by 分组语句会进行排序吗
直接来看 explain 之后结果 (为了适应页面展示,仅截取了部分输出信息)
TableScan
alias: test1
Statistics: Num rows: 9 Data size: 108 Basic stats: COMPLETE Column stats: NONE
Select Operator
expressions: id (type: int), user_name (type: string)
outputColumnNames: id, user_name
Statistics: Num rows: 9 Data size: 108 Basic stats: COMPLETE Column stats: NONE
Group By Operator
aggregations: max(user_name)
keys: id (type: int)
mode: hash
outputColumnNames: _col0, _col1
Statistics: Num rows: 9 Data size: 108 Basic stats: COMPLETE Column stats: NONE
Reduce Output Operator
key expressions: _col0 (type: int)
sort order: +
Map-reduce partition columns: _col0 (type: int)
Statistics: Num rows: 9 Data size: 108 Basic stats: COMPLETE Column stats: NONE
value expressions: _col1 (type: string)
...
我们看 Group By Operator,里面有 keys: id (type: int) 说明按照 id 进行分组的,再往下看还有 sort order: + ,说明是按照 id 字段进行正序排序的。
3. 哪条sql执行效率高呢?
观察两条sql语句
SELECT
a.id,
b.user_name
FROM
test1 a
JOIN test2 b ON a.id = b.id
WHERE
a.id > 2;
SELECT
a.id,
b.user_name
FROM
(SELECT * FROM test1 WHERE id > 2) a
JOIN test2 b ON a.id = b.id;
这两条sql语句输出的结果是一样的,但是哪条sql执行效率高呢
有人说第一条sql执行效率高,因为第二条sql有子查询,子查询会影响性能
有人说第二条sql执行效率高,因为先过滤之后,在进行join时的条数减少了,所以执行效率就高了
到底哪条sql效率高呢,我们直接在sql语句前面加上 explain,看下执行计划不就知道了嘛
在第一条sql语句前加上 explain,得到如下结果
hive (default)> explain select a.id,b.user_name from test1 a join test2 b on a.id=b.id where a.id >2;
OK

大家有什么发现,除了表别名不一样,其他的执行计划完全一样,都是先进行 where 条件过滤,在进行 join 条件关联。说明 hive 底层会自动帮我们进行优化,所以这两条sql语句执行效率是一样的。
最后
以上仅列举了3个我们生产中既熟悉又有点迷糊的例子,explain 还有很多其他的用途,如查看stage的依赖情况、排查数据倾斜、hive 调优等,小伙伴们可以自行尝试。
