Table Schema

create table if not exists culvert (
user_id string,
page_id string,
ad_id string,
ad_type string,
event_type string,
event_time string,
ip_address string)
partitioned by (year int, month int)
clustered by (user_id)
into 32 buckets
stored as orc
tblproperties("transactional"="true");

Sample Run

NOTE: Before running the following command, make sure metastore service is running and serving at 9083 port, database and table with above schema already exists. The table and metastore should meet the requirements from https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/Streaming+Data+Ingest+V2#StreamingDataIngestV2-StreamingRequirements

./culvert -u thrift://localhost:9083 -db test -table culvert -p 64 -n 100000

The above command will run culvert generated fake data to database 'test' table 'culvert' using 64 threads and each thread commits after every 100K rows.
