Nick Dimiduk updated HIVE-6473:
-------------------------------
Attachment: HIVE-6473.0.patch.txt
This patch introduces a new configuration flag hive.hbase.generatehfiles. When
it is enabled, the Storage Handler will use HiveHFileOutputFormat for writing
new records.
Note that all existing limitations for HFile generation from Hive remain,
notably:
- the property hfile.family.path must be specified either as a table property
or via job configuration
- only a single column family is supported
- records must arrive at the RecordWriter in a sorted order that is compatible
with HFileWriter requirements
> Allow writing HFiles via HBaseStorageHandler table

> Generating HFiles for bulkload into HBase could be more convenient. Right now
> we require the user to register a new table with the appropriate output
> format. This patch allows the exact same functionality, but through an
> existing table managed by the HBaseStorageHandler.
