Is there a way to keep the duplicates in a collected set in Hive, or simulate the sort of aggregate collection that Hive provides using some other method? I want to aggregate all of the items in a column that have the same key into an array, with duplicates.
I.E.:
hash_id | num_of_cats
=====================
ad3jkfk 4
ad3jkfk 4
ad3jkfk 2
fkjh43f 1
fkjh43f 8
fkjh43f 8
rjkhd93 7
rjkhd93 4
rjkhd93 7
should return:
hash_agg | cats_aggregate
===========================
ad3jkfk Array<int>(4,4,2)
fkjh43f Array<int>(1,8,8)
rjkhd93 Array<int>(7,4,7)
