title: How can we decide the total no. of buckets for a hive table
body: <p>i am bit new to hadoop. As per my knowledge buckets are fixed no. of partitions in hive table and hive uses the no. of reducers same as the total no. of buckets defined while creating the table. So can anyone tell me how to calculate the total no. of buckets in a hive table. Is there any formula for calculating the total number of buckets ?</p>
