Datameer 7.5 includes several updates to UI performance, the Import Job Wizard, the Hive Data Link Wizard, and behavior of partitioned and non-partitioned Hive tables. Performance improvements include reduced execution time and new Production Mode. See HiveServer2, Exporting to HiveServer1 and HiveServer2, and Hive for related documentation.
As of Datameer 7.5, Datameer Classic data field type mapping is removed and only Hive specific mapping is performed, where Datameer BigDecimal maps to Hive Decimal and Datameer Date maps to Hive TimeStamp.

Note that Datameer support for Hive Metastore (Hive Server1) is being deprecated in favor of HiveServer2, effective in a future Datameer minor release. It is strongly recommended that the appropriate configuration changes be introduced as soon as possible. |

Datameer 7.5 includes the option to split workbook string and list type column content by a selected delimiter.
Column Encoding
Column encoding provides the option to perform ordinal, 1-hot or binned encoding on column data, which assigns a unique numeric value to each categorical or continuous value. Once applied, encoding can be updated as needed until the desired results are achieved. Using Datameer to perform encoding provides a consistent view of prepared data, which is especially helpful for teams working together on model building and testing activities.
Workbook Data Access Permissions
You can use the File Browser to set permissions for import, export jobs, data links, and connections, and to set workbook permissions. You can also use related custom properties to determine whether or not reading workbook data requires permissions on the upstream data. Documentation in on the Behavior Change page under "Setting Access Permission Evaluation for Workbooks."
