Apache Hudi
Apache Hudi (pronounced Hoodie) stands for Hadoop Upserts Deletes and Incrementals.
Hudi manages the storage of large analytical datasets on DFS (Cloud stores, HDFS or any Hadoop FileSystem compatible storage).
Features
- Upsert support with fast, pluggable indexing
- Atomically publish data with rollback support
- Snapshot isolation between writer & queries
- Savepoints for data recovery
- Manages file sizes, layout using statistics
- Async compaction of row & columnar data
- Timeline metadata to track lineage
- Optimize data lake layout with clustering
Hudi supports three types of queries:
- Snapshot Query - Provides snapshot queries on real-time data, using a combination of columnar & row-based storage (e.g Parquet + Avro).
- Incremental Query - Provides a change stream with records inserted or updated after a point in time.
- Read Optimized Query - Provides excellent snapshot query performance via purely columnar storage (e.g. Parquet).

Building Apache Hudi from source
Prerequisites for building Apache Hudi:
- Unix-like system (like Linux, Mac OS X)
- Java 8 (Java 9 or 10 may work)
- Git
- Maven (>=3.3.1)
# Checkout code and build
git clone https://github.com/apache/hudi.git && cd hudi
mvn clean package -DskipTests
# Start command
spark-2.4.4-bin-hadoop2.7/bin/spark-shell \
--jars `ls packaging/hudi-spark-bundle/target/hudi-spark-bundle_2.11-*.*.*-SNAPSHOT.jar` \
--conf 'spark.serializer=org.apache.spark.serializer.KryoSerializer'
To build the Javadoc for all Java and Scala classes:
# Javadoc generated under target/site/apidocs
mvn clean javadoc:aggregate -Pjavadocs
Build with Scala 2.12
The default Scala version supported is 2.11. To build for Scala 2.12 version, build using scala-2.12 profile
mvn clean package -DskipTests -Dscala-2.12
Build with Spark 3
The default Spark version supported is 2.4.4. To build for different Spark 3 versions, use the corresponding profile
# Build against Spark 3.2.1 (the default build shipped with the public Spark 3 bundle)
mvn clean package -DskipTests -Dspark3
# Build against Spark 3.1.2
mvn clean package -DskipTests -Dspark3.1.x
What about "spark-avro" module?
Starting from versions 0.11, Hudi no longer requires spark-avro to be specified using --packages
Running Tests
Unit tests can be run with maven profile unit-tests.
mvn -Punit-tests test
Functional tests, which are tagged with @Tag("functional"), can be run with maven profile functional-tests.
mvn -Pfunctional-tests test
To run tests with spark event logging enabled, define the Spark event log directory. This allows visualizing test DAG and stages using Spark History Server UI.
mvn -Punit-tests test -DSPARK_EVLOG_DIR=/path/for/spark/event/log
