I'm pretty sure the correct answer is Option D. Hive is all about handling unstructured data, so it makes sense that it would define the schema based on the underlying files.

You might be right, I didn't consider that. Let's see what others think.

Ooh, this is a tricky one! I'm going to go with Option D - it just makes more sense to me that Hive would look at the data format rather than the query.

But doesn't the schema depend on the format of the data? I think D) is the right answer.

Option C sounds like it could be true, but I'm not sure. Hive is supposed to be flexible, so it might define the schema dynamically.

I think Option D is the correct answer. Hive's schema is defined based on the format of the data, not the SELECT query.

I think it's actually option C. Hive defines the schema based on the FROM clause in a SELECT query.

Option B is definitely true. Hive-managed tables are stored in HDFS, so dropping the table will delete the underlying folder.
