> Key: HIVE-2777
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2777
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Metastore
> Reporter: Aniket Mokashi
> Assignee: Aniket Mokashi
> Fix For: 0.9.0
>
>
> Hive should have ability to atomically add and drop partitions. This way
> admins can change partitions atomically without breaking the running jobs. It
> allows admin to merge several partitions into one.
> Essentially, we would like to have an api- add_drop_partitions(String db,
> String tbl_name, List<Partition> addParts, List<List<String>> dropParts,
> boolean deleteData);
> This jira covers changes required for metastore and thrift.
