- Hive Metastore Metadata is stored in an embedded Derby database whose disk storage location is determined by the Hive configuration variable named javax.jdo.option.ConnectionURL. By default, this location is./metastore_db(seeconf/hive-default.xml).
Using Derby in embedded mode allows at most one user at a time. To configure Derby to run in server mode, see Hive Using Derby in Server Mode. To configure a database other than Derby for the Hive metastore, see Hive Metastore Administration.
