(Updated 2011-08-08 20:55:11.546253) Review request for hive, Ning Zhang and Paul Yang. Changes ------- added derby upgrade and revert-the-upgrade script Summary ------- This patch tries to make minimal changes to the API while keeping migration short and somewhat easy to revert. The new schema can be described as follows: - CDS is a table corresponding to Column Descriptor objects. Currently, it only stores a CD_ID. - COLUMNS_V2 is a table corresponding to MFieldSchema objects, or columns. A Column Descriptor holds a list of columns. COLUMNS_V2 has a foreign key to the CD_ID to which it belongs. - SDS was modified to reference a Column Descriptor. So SDS now has a foreign key to a CD_ID which describes its columns. During migration, we create Column Descriptors for tables in a straightforward manner: their columns are now just wrapped inside a column descriptor. The SDS of partitions use their parent table's column descriptor, since currently a partition and its table share the same list of columns. When altering or adding a partition, give it it's parent table's column descriptor IF the columns they describe are the same. Otherwise, create a new column descriptor for its columns. When adding or altering a table, create a new column descriptor every time. Whenever you drop a storage descriptor (e.g, when dropping tables or partitions), check to see if the related column descriptor has any other references in the table. That is, check to see if any other storage descriptors point to that column descriptor. If none do, then delete that column descriptor. This check is in place so we don't have unreferenced column descriptors and columns hanging around after schema evolution for tables. This addresses bug HIVE-2246. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2246 Diffs (updated) ----- trunk/metastore/scripts/upgrade/derby/008-HIVE-2246.derby.sql PRE-CREATION trunk/metastore/scripts/upgrade/derby/008-REVERT-HIVE-2246.derby.sql PRE-CREATION trunk/metastore/scripts/upgrade/mysql/008-HIVE-2246.mysql.sql PRE-CREATION trunk/metastore/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/metastore/HiveMetaStore.java 1153927 trunk/metastore/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/metastore/ObjectStore.java 1153927 trunk/metastore/src/model/org/apache/hadoop/hive/metastore/model/MColumnDescriptor.java PRE-CREATION trunk/metastore/src/model/org/apache/hadoop/hive/metastore/model/MStorageDescriptor.java 1153927 trunk/metastore/src/model/package.jdo 1153927 trunk/ql/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/ql/exec/DDLTask.java 1153927 trunk/ql/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/ql/metadata/MetaDataFormatUtils.java 1153927 Diff: https://reviews.apache.org/r/1183/diff Testing ------- Passes facebook's regression testing and all existing test cases. In one instance, before migration, the overhead involved with storage descriptors and columns was ~11 GB. After migration, the overhead was ~1.5 GB. Thanks, Sohan
