Hive Difference between partitioning and bucketing in Big Data Hadoop

Partitioning and Bucketing of tables is done to improve the query performance.
Partitioning helps execute queries faster, only if the partitioning scheme has some common range filtering i.e. either by timestamp ranges, by location, etc. Bucketing does not work by default. 
•Partitioning helps eliminate data when used in WHERE clause. Bucketing helps organize data inside the partition into multiple files so that same set of data will always be written in the same bucket. Bucketing helps in joining various columns. 
•In partitioning technique, a partition is created for every unique value of the column and there could be a situation where several tiny partitions may have to be created. However, with bucketing, one can limit it to a specific number and the data can then be decomposed in those buckets. 
•Basically, a bucket is a file in Hive whereas partition is a directory.
