Lengning Liu commented on HIVE-2998: ------------------------------------ Hi Edward, thanks for the comment. We agree with you. The goal of this work is to remove the dependency of Cygwin on Windows so that Hive can run natively. This is an extension to the similar work we are doing for Hadoop (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8079). We definitely look forward to more feedback and collaborations next. Thanks! > Making Hive run on Windows Server and Windows Azure environment > --------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-2998 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2998 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 0.7.1, 0.8.1 > Environment: Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows Azure > Reporter: Lengning Liu > > This is the master JIRA for improvements on Hive that target on making Hive > running natively on Windows Server and Windows Azure environment. Microsoft > has done an initial work to make Hive (release 0.7.1 and 0.8.1) to run on > Windows environment natively, and wants to contribute this work back to the > community. The patches to sub-tasks of this JIRA are based on this work. The > end-to-end HiveQL query tests pass. We are working on investigating failed > unit test cases at this moment and hopefully reaching the required bar in the > next few months. We are posting the patches now so that we can get early > feedback from the community and collaborate with other contributors who are > interested in this work in the future.
