+    <para>The Apache Hive data warehouse software facilitates
+    querying and managing large datasets residing in distributed
+    storage. Hive provides a mechanism to project structure onto
+    this data and query the data using a SQL-like language called
+    HiveQL. At the same time this language also allows traditional
+    map/reduce programmers to plug in their custom mappers and
+    reducers when it is inconvenient or inefficient to express this
+    logic in HiveQL.</para>
