title: Hadoop/Hive : Loading data from .csv on a local machine
body: <p>As this is coming from a newbie...</p>
  
  <p>I had Hadoop and Hive set up for me, so I can run Hive queries on my computer accessing data on AWS cluster.
  Can I run Hive queries with .csv data stored on my computer, like I did with MS SQL Server? </p>
  
  <p>How do I load .csv data into Hive then? What does it have to do with Hadoop and which mode I should run that one?</p>
  
  <p>What settings I should care about so that if I did something wrong I can always go back and run queries on Amazon without compromising what was set up for me earlier?</p>
