Leverage existing Hadoop cluster with CA

With the Hive ODBC driver and Composable Analytics, users can perform ad-hoc queries on their data living in the HDFS. Hive will take a sql-like query and translate it into map-reduce jobs. These jobs can be chained together within CA applications. In addition, tabular results returned from the query can be fused with data living in other systems.
