The document discusses various techniques used to optimize Hive query execution and deployment in Treasure Data, including:
1) Running Hive queries through a custom QueryRunner that handles query planning, execution, and statistics reporting.
2) Using an in-memory metastore and schema-on-read from Treasure Data's columnar storage to manage schemas and tables.
3) Configuring jobs through HiveConf properties to control mappings, partitions, and storage handlers for efficient execution on Hadoop clusters.
