Ashish Kumar Singh commented on HIVE-6806: ------------------------------------------ [~leftylev] Thanks for detailed info here. I have updated the JIRA's release note and documentation on Avro's usage in Hive, https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/AvroSerDe. Feel free to make it better. > CREATE TABLE should support STORED AS AVRO > ------------------------------------------ > > Key: HIVE-6806 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6806 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Serializers/Deserializers > Affects Versions: 0.12.0 > Reporter: Jeremy Beard > Assignee: Ashish Kumar Singh > Priority: Minor > Labels: Avro, TODOC14 > Fix For: 0.14.0 > > Attachments: HIVE-6806.1.patch, HIVE-6806.2.patch, HIVE-6806.3.patch, > HIVE-6806.patch > > > Avro is well established and widely used within Hive, however creating > Avro-backed tables requires the messy listing of the SerDe, InputFormat and > OutputFormat classes. > Similarly to HIVE-5783 for Parquet, Hive would be easier to use if it had > native Avro support. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
