How to connect hive server with php - php

I have installed Hadoop 2.7 and Hive 1.2.1 on Ubuntu 14.04 that manage sensor data. I have already stored data sensor to Hive.
My Project is to make a web server from it and a web application that can show data record from hive table.
My problem is How to connect database Hive with php? I found Apache Thrift to do that. but I dont understand (Im new at Hadoop things)
Can someone give me tutorial or step by step to solve my problem

One way to try is to use ODBC. If you do not know, how to use ODBC. Read more on that via: Using PHP can I use a JDBC or ODBC connection?
Once, you can setup your ODBC connection, you can use ODBC to connect to the hiveserver. To install, ODBC here two links on how to do that on Cloudera resp. Hortonworks.

Sync Sage 100 Data from an ODBC Data Source to a MySQL Database

I am trying to setup remote access to the data of Sage 100 Advanced ERP for use within a website running on a MySQL database. I only need to get inventory levels for products, so it's a read-only application.
As I understand it, Sage 100 comes with an ODBC driver that can allow remote access to Sage's flat-file data storage by creating a database view. What I need to do is copy a few fields from that data on the Sage server over to the web server hosting the website.
To automate this process, I assume I'll need to setup a cron job on the web server that runs a PHP script (preferred language) executing SQL queries that connect to the remote server, extract the needed data, and write it to the appropriate tables in the MySQL database. I'm fine with that last step, but I'm unsure of the steps to connect and retrieve data from the ODBC data source.
How can I connect to and extract Sage 100 data from an ODBC Data Source to write to a MySQL Database on another server?
Or, is there a way to sync/mirror the ODBC Data Source to a MySQL Database on a separate server that I could then use to copy data over to the website's database?
Note: MySQL has documentation on pulling data FROM MySQL using ODBC, but no info on how to import data TO MySQL using ODBC on an external server.
It's actually very easy. Just establish an ODBC connection to the SOTAMAS90 DSN. Your connection string looks like this:
"DSN=SOTAMAS90; UID=MyUserId; PWD=MyPassword; Company=ABC"
Note that by default Sage installs a 32-bit version of the driver, which means you must target your application to 32 bits. Or you can install the 64-bit version of the driver, which can be found in your Sage directory, in the WKSetup folder.
After that just write code to SELECT * from each of the tables you need, and write them into your MySql database.
I don't really know MySql well, but in SQL Server you can set up a Linked Server, point it to SOTAMAS90, and then query the SQL Server database instead of the ODBC driver. But it's slow. Much better performance if you can run a nightly ETL to populate your MySQL database and query that. Be sure to set foreign keys and create indexes for them after to define the tables.
Hope that helps.

Remote MS ACCESS connection with PHP ODBC on CentOS [duplicate]

Does anyone know if it's possible to connect and query an MS Access database from a Linux Server using PHP?
If it is possible I'm thinking install ODBC driver on the Linux server, but will it work to connect to Access is the question. I've read it's possible with MSSQL.
My knowledge is very limited when it comes to any Windows related DBs so any advice much appreciated.
Yes, it's possible. I've done it using ODBTP, which took advantage of the ODBC driver on the (Windows) machine that hosted the Access database file.
It's also theoretically possible to use an ODBC driver on the Linux server to read an Access database on a Windows networking share if the Linux box can "see" it. However, I've never had very good luck with Access ODBC on Linux so I wouldn't recommend spending too much time trying to get it working.

Connecting to a Vertica DB with PHP

Is there a way to connect to a Vertica database with PHP -- a function similar to mysql_connect()?
I'm ultimately trying to write a script that pulls data from a Vertica database and stores it in a localhost MySQL database.
If necessary, I would be willing to work with Python to make this happen.
The PHP ODBC module (classic or PDO) works fine for Vertica connections. You'll need to download the appropriate ODBC driver for your Vertica version from the My Vertica portal and install it on your PHP server.
Also you can use a Postgres client libraries to connect to Vertica instance.

Connecting to external MySQL DB from a web server not running MySQL

While I've been working with MySQL for years, this is the first time I've run across this very newbie-esq issue. Due to a client demand, I must host their website files (PHP) on a IIS server that is not running MySQL (instead, they are running MSSQL). However, I have developed the site using a MySQL database which is located on an external host (Rackspace Cloud). Obviously, my mysql_connect function is now bombing because MySQL is not running on localhost.
Question: Is it even possible to hit an external MySQL database if localhost is not running MySQL?
Apologies for the rookie question, and many thanks in advance.
* To clarify, I know how to connect to a remote MySQL server, but it is the fact that my IIS web server is not running ANY form of MySQL (neither server nor client) that is giving me trouble. Put another way, phpinfo() does not return anything about MySQL. *
Yes, you can use a MySQL database that's not on the same machine as Apache+PHP.
Basically, you'll connect from PHP to MySQL via a network connection -- TCP-based, I suppose ; which means :
MySQL must be configured to listen to, and accept connections on the network interface
Which means configuring MySQL to do that
And given the required privileges to your MySQL user, so he can connect from a remote server
And PHP must be able to connect to the server hosting MySQL.
Note, though, that habing MySQL on a server that's far away might not be great for performances : each SQL query will have to go through the network, and this could take some time...
If phpinfo is not returning anything about MySQL you need to install the MySQL plugin for PHP, easiest way to do that probably is to just upgrade PHP to the latest version. If not there is a .DLL file that you will need.
http://www.php.net/manual/en/mysql.installation.php
you will need to install the mysql extensions. this link should help: http://php.net/manual/en/install.windows.extensions.php
The MySQL server has nothing to do with PHP itself. What "mysql support" in PHP means is that it's been compiled with (or has a module loaded) that implements the MySQL client interface. For windows, it'd be 'mysql.dll', and on Unix-ish systems it'd be 'mysql.so'. Once those are loaded, then the various MySQL intefaces (mysql_xxx(), mysqli_xxx(), PDO, MDB2, etc...) will be able to access any MySQL server anywhere, as long as you have the proper connection string.
