PyHive is a Python DB-API 2.0 and SQLAlchemy interface collection for Apache Hive, Presto, and Trino. It lets Python applications connect to and query these SQL engines, including asynchronous query execution and authentication options. The project has been donated to Apache Kyuubi.
Use cases
- query Hive from Python scripts
- connect to Presto with a DB-API cursor
- use SQLAlchemy with Hive or Trino engines
- run asynchronous Hive queries and poll status
- authenticate to Hive over HTTPS with LDAP or basic auth
- fetch logs from running Hive queries
When to choose
- you need a Python DB-API or SQLAlchemy driver for Hive, Presto, or Trino
- you want asynchronous query execution with log fetching against HiveServer2
- you want a maintained fork path via Apache Kyuubi
When to avoid
- you need a driver for a different database like Postgres or MySQL
- you want an actively developed standalone project (development moved to Apache Kyuubi)
- you need a high-level analytics client rather than a low-level DB-API driver
