>
> - The documentation provides an ambiguous explanation regarding the mutually
> exclusive nature of {*}STORED BY{*} and {*}STORED AS{*}.
> - As mentioned on
> https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/StorageHandlers , when the
> {*}CREATE TABLE{*} statement specifies {*}STORED BY{*}, it should not also
> specify {*}STORED AS{*}. The content in question is as follows.
> {code:bash}
> When STORED BY is specified, then row_format (DELIMITED or SERDE) and STORED
> AS cannot be specified. Optional SERDEPROPERTIES can be specified as part of
> the STORED BY clause and will be passed to the serde provided by the storage
> handler.
> See CREATE TABLE and Row Format, Storage Format, and SerDe for more
> information.
> Example:
> CREATE TABLE hbase_table_1(key int, value string)
> STORED BY 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.hbase.HBaseStorageHandler'
> WITH SERDEPROPERTIES (
> "hbase.columns.mapping" = "cf:string",
> "hbase.table.name" = "hbase_table_0"
> );
> {code}
> - This is similarly reflected in the documentation at
> https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+DDL , where
> {*}|{*} separates {*}STORED BY{*} from {*}STORED AS{*}, indicating their
> distinct usage and mutual exclusivity.
> {code:bash}
> [
> [ROW FORMAT row_format]
> [STORED AS file_format]
> | STORED BY 'storage.handler.class.name' [WITH SERDEPROPERTIES (...)]
> -- (Note: Available in Hive 0.6.0 and later)
> ]
> {code}
> - However, this contradicts the information provided in the Hive-Iceberg
> Integration documentation at
> https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/Hive-Iceberg+Integration ,
> which explicitly gives examples demonstrating that {*}STORED BY{*} can
> coexist with {*}STORED AS{*}. This creates an ambiguous interpretation.
> {code:bash}
> The iceberg table currently supports three file formats: PARQUET, ORC & AVRO.
> The default file format is Parquet. The file format can be explicitily
> provided by using STORED AS <Format> while creating the table
> Example-1:
> CREATE TABLE ORC_TABLE (ID INT) STORED BY ICEBERG STORED AS ORC;
> {code}
> - Further early discussions on this topic can be found at
