Andrew Chalfant created HIVE-3068: ------------------------------------- Summary: Add ability to export table metadata as JSON on table drop Key: HIVE-3068 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3068 Project: Hive Issue Type: Bug Components: Metastore, Serializers/Deserializers Reporter: Andrew Chalfant Priority: Minor
When a table is dropped, the contents go to the users trash but the metadata is lost. It would be super neat to be able to save the metadata as well so that tables could be trivially re-instantiated via thrift. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
