             Summary: Add ability to ignore invalid values in JSON SerDe
                 Key: HIVE-18295
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-18295
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: HCatalog
            Reporter: Matthew Knox
            Assignee: Matthew Knox


It would be nice to be able to configure the JSON SerDe to ignore invalid 
values while parsing JSON. 

In our case our raw JSON data is ingested from multiple sources, some of which 
unreliably sanitize the data. Our current practice is to cleanse the data after 
ingestion, but that can lead to other issues as well. Having the ability to 
simply default to NULL if a value can not be parsed would be immensely helpful 
to us.
