Vihang Karajgaonkar commented on HIVE-23018: -------------------------------------------- Attached the first version of the patch. The patch adds new fields to the {{InsertEventRequestData}} and {{FireEventRequestData}} to optionally give the ability to clients to send multiple {{InsertEventRequestData}} for individual partitions in one RPC call. > Provide a bulk API to fire multiple insert events > ------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-23018 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-23018 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Vihang Karajgaonkar > Assignee: Vihang Karajgaonkar > Priority: Major > Attachments: HIVE-23018.01.patch > > > Metastore provides a API to fire a listener event (currently only supports > INSERT event). The problem with that API is that it only takes in one > partition at a time. A typical query may insert data into multiple partitions > at a time. In such a case query engines like HS2 or Impala will have to issue > multiple RPCs to metastore sequentially to fire these events. This can show > up as a slowdown to the user if the query engines do not return the prompt to > the user until all the events are fired (In case of HS2 and Impala). It would > be great if we have bulk API which takes in multiple partitions for a table > so that metastore can generate many such events in one RPC. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
