Loading Data

Scenario

After a CarbonData table is created, you can run the LOAD DATA command to load data to the table for query. Once data loading is triggered, data is encoded in CarbonData format and files in multi-dimensional and column-based format are compressed and copied to the HDFS path of CarbonData files for quick analysis and queries. The HDFS path can be configured in the carbon.properties file. For details, see Common CarbonData Parameters.
