Answer 1

Hey,

We use store command to store the data in HDFS. Will explain how to store the data in Apache pig using store command.

Syntax for store statement:-

grunt> STORE Relation_name INTO ' required_directory_path ' [USING function];

Example,

grunt> STORE student INTO ' hdfs://localhost:9000/pig_Output/ ' USING PigStorage (',');

After executing the pig statement you will get the output.
