Cheat Code
bigdata-file-viewer
Today I need to explore some of the ORC file that has been loaded by someone to datalake. I can do my usual stun by creating external table on Hive and run my checking.
So I was googling around and managed to reach to this tool. And I love it!
Downloaded the latest released file, and within seconds I’m able to open the ORC file, inspect the content and relevant metadata. Love it!
Thanks Eugene-Mark for creating such wonderful tool!
