Hi devs, I'd like to start a discussion about bringing DDL & DML compatibility for Hive connector. The proposal mainly aims to implement more DDLs for Hive connector and allow users to write Hive syntax when using the Hive dialect. Hopefully this will make it easier for users to migrate to Flink, with fewer SQL statements that need to be changed.
Please find more details in the FLIP wiki [1]. Feedbacks and suggestions are appreciated. [1] https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FLINK/FLIP-123%3A+DDL+and+DML+compatibility+for+Hive+connector -- Cheers, Rui Li
