Jeremy A. Lucas created HIVE-3574: ------------------------------------- Summary: Allow Hive to Submit MapReduce jobs via the MapReduce API (instead of using Hadoop BIN) Key: HIVE-3574 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3574 Project: Hive Issue Type: Improvement Components: Query Processor, SQL Affects Versions: 0.9.0, 0.8.1, 0.8.0, 0.7.1, 0.7.0, 0.6.0, 0.5.0, 0.4.1, 0.4.0, 0.3.0, 0.10.0, 0.9.1 Environment: All environments would be affected by this Reporter: Jeremy A. Lucas Priority: Minor
Having Hive to submit generated jobs to an M/R cluster via the MapReduce API would allow for potentially greater compatibility across platforms, in addition to allowing for these jobs to be run easily against pseudo-clusters in tests (think MiniMRCluster). This kind of change could involve something as simple as using a Hadoop Configuration object with a generic ToolRunner or something similar to run jobs. Specifically, this kind of change would most likely occur in the execute() method of org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.MapRedTask (note that this class already has access to a JobConf object as well, which could serve in itself as a Configuration object). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
