I think the answer is DAS (Data Analytics Studio), which is part of DPS (Data Plane Services). Check this blog post: https://www.cloudera.com/tutorials/loading-and-querying-data-with-data-analytics-studio.html

It looks that Ambari 2.7.0 only includes YARN,FILES,SMARTSENSE and WFM views.

https://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/Ambari-2.7.0.0/administering-ambari-views/content/amb_unde...

I dont see any Jira related to hive view being removed from Ambari 2.7.0 version. Below jira gives a clue about Ambari Hive view 2.0 being removed.

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-23742

Additional reference from Ambari upgrade docs.

Hive View is not present in HDP 3.0 or Ambari 2.7. Instead we have Superset service to access Hive. Details of it can be found here - https://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/HDP3/HDP-3.0.0/integrating-hive/content/hive_visualizing_h...

Apache Superset is a technical preview in HDP 3.0

- Really!? Why is Hortonworks always removing every good way to easily use the platform; Hue - removed; Ugly-Ambari-View - removed; What next? Removing Superset again?!

Superset also doesn't appear to work with Kerberos or Hive HTTP Transport so it's really not a replacement. We're going to have to wait to upgrade until Hortonworks can provided a suitable replacement for browsing Hive via web browser.

For the moment, Zeppelin can be a functional replacement, and many issues/features for Zeppelin/Livy/Hive have been addressed in 3.0 as well!

Some functionality is there but the ability to browse the hive structure in a visual fashion is gone and some capability like viewing the applicable Ranger policies aren’t possible from jdbc. Definitely a step backwards no matter what.

Hi, I'm the product manager of Hive view. Due to technical limitations we are not able to transition Hive view into HDP 3.0 platform. I'll provide details in the next few weeks with a replacement solution.

Superset is still in tech preview so it doesn't have all the security features for production yet. It's NOT a replacement for Hive view.
