What is the default location where Apache Hive stores table data?

[DataFlair Team]

The default location is configured in “hive-default.xml.templete” file as

<property>
<name>hive.metastore.warehouse.dir</name>
<value>/user/hive/warehouse</value>
<description>location of default database for the warehouse</description>
</property>

so, all the hive files will store in “/user/hive/warehouse” location. We can change the location of storage by updating the property value.
