I want to filter records from given file based on some criteria,i want my criteria to be if value of third field is equal to some value then retrive that record and save it in output file .i am taking CSV file as input.Can anyone suggest something ?
Simplest way would probably be to use pig
something like
orig = load 'filename.csv' using PigStorage(',') as (first,second,third:chararray,...);
filtered_orig= FILTER orig by third=="somevalue";
store filtered_orig into 'newfilename' using PigStorage(',');
If you need scalability you can use hadoop in the following way:
Install Hadoop, install hive, put your csv files into HDFS.
define the CSV file as external table (http://hive.apache.org/docs/r0.8.1/language_manual/data-manipulation-statements.html) and then you can write SQLs against the CSV file. Results of SQL can be then exported back to CSV.

How to HBase table data to convert .CSV file, im trying to convert table data to csv format , but i couldn't get any code
hbase001> list
Table
sample_data
Creating an external Hive table mapped on to HBase table using HBaseStorageHandler can solve your problem ,you can now use "select * from table_name" to get data into a csv table (stored as textfile fields terminted by ','). Please refer the below link for reference.

There are plenty of ways to solve your task. You can use spark, regular mapreduce or special tools like sqoop. This task is rather trivial and you can implement it by yourself if you learn hadoop. The quickest way for starters to do it is probably sqoop. Please get youself familiar with this power tool and play with it.
Good luck!
Context:
I have data in a table in mysql with xml as one column.
For Ex: Table application has 3 fields.
id(integer) , details(xml) , address(text)
(In real case i have 10-12 fields here).
Now we want to query the whole table with all the fields in mysql table using pig.
Transferred the data from mysql into hdfs using sqoop with
record delimiter '\u0005' and column delimiter as "`" to /x.xml.
Then Load the data from x.xml into the Pig using
app = LOAD '/x.xml' USING PigStorage('\u0005') AS (id:int , details:chararray , address:chararray);
What is the best way to query such data.
Solution that i could currently think about.
Use a custom loader and extend Loadfunc to read the data.
If there is some way to load a particular column using xmlpathloader and rest loading normally. Please suggest if this can be done.
As all the examples i have seen using xpath are using XML loader while loading the file.
For Ex:
A = LOAD 'xmls/hadoop_books.xml' using org.apache.pig.piggybank.storage.XMLLoader('BOOK') as (x:chararray);
Is it good to use pig for querying such kind of data, please suggest if there are any other alternative technologies, that does it effectively.
The size of data present is around 500 GB.
FYI i am new to hadoop ecosytem and i might be missing something trivial.
Load a specific column:
Some other StackOverflow answers suggesting preprocessing the data with awk (generate a new input contains only the xml part.)
A nicer work-a-round to generate the specific data with an extra FOREACH from the xml column, like:
B = FOREACH app GENERATE details;
and store it to be able to load with an XML loader.
Check the StreamingXMLLoader
(You can also check Apache Drill it may support this case out of the box)
Or use UDF for the XML processing and in pig you just hand over the related xml field.
I have a text file with N number of columns (Not sure, in the future I may have N+1).
Example:
1|A
2|B|C
3|D|E|F
I want to store above data into hbase using pig without writing UDF. How can I store this kind of data without knowing the number of columns in a file?
Put it in a map and then you can use cf1:* where cf1 is your column family
I am new to PIG.
Actually I have a use case in which I have to store the data again and again in the same file after every regular interval. But as I gone through some tutorial and links, I didn't see the anything related to this.
How should I do store the data in same file?
It's impossible. Pig uses Hadoop and right now there is no "recommended" solution for appending files.
The other point is that pig would produce one file only if one mapper has been used or one reducer has been used and the end of the whole data flow.
You can:

Bad solution:
2.1. process data in your pig script
2.2. load data from exisitng file
2.3. union relations hwre first relation keeps new data, the second relation keeps data from exisitng file
2.4. store union result to new output
2.5. replace old file with new one.
Good solution:
Create folder /mydata
create partitions inside folder, they can be /yyyy/MM/dd/HH if you do process data each hour
Use globs to read data:
/mydata/*/*/*/*/*
All files from hour partitions would be read by PIG/HIVE/MR or whatever hadoop tool.
make a date folder like: /abc/hadoop/20130726/
within you generate output based on timestamp like: /abc/hadoop/20130726/201307265465.gz.
Then use getmerge command to merge all data into a single file
Usage: hadoop fs -getmerge <src> <localdst> [addnl]
Hope it will help you.
how to work on specific part of cvs file uploaded into HDFS ?
I'm new in Hadoop and i have an a question that is if i export an a relational database into cvs file then uploaded it into HDFS . so how to work on specific part (table) in file using MapReduce .
thanks in advance .
I assume that the RDBMS tables are exported to individual csv files for each table and stored in HDFS. I presume that, you are referring to column(s) data within the table(s) when you mentioned 'specific part (table)'. If so, place the individual csv files into the separate file paths say /user/userName/dbName/tables/table1.csv
Now, you can configure the job for the input path and field occurrences. You may consider to use the default Input Format so that your mapper would get one line at time as input. Based on the configuration/properties, you can read the specific fields and process the data.
Cascading allows you to get started very quickly with MapReduce. It has framework that allows you to set up Taps to access sources (your CSV file) and process it inside a pipeline say to (for example) add column A to column B and place the sum into column C by selecting them as Fields
use BigTable means convert your database to one big table
