Does hive-hcatalog-coar.jar present in the CCA175 CDH VM environment

[#1]

Hello All, I am preparing for CCA175 Spark and Hadoop Developer certification. 

Just would like to confirm whether CDH VM environment has hive-hcataglog-core.jar?. 

I am planning to use this jar if the situation requires to create a Hive table for a given .json data file.

Hey email2dgk,

Yes, HCatalog is included as of CDH 5. Currently, a CDH5 cluster is provided for the CCA175. Just for kicks, I launched a machine running CDH5.3 and confirmed that the CDH libraries include hive-hcatalog-core.jar.

Good luck on the CCA175!
