Hi, I have read that hadoop supports native operations over S3 Filesystem so you're able to perform operations like:
hadoop fs -ls s3n://mybucket/my_folder/ or: hadoop fs -copy s3n://mybucket/my_folder /tmp/my_folder I'm wondering why hive is not able to perform similar operations. It would be a very good feature load data directly from S3 to Hive, something like: hive -e "LOAD DATA LOCAL INPATH 's3n://mybucket/my_hive_table' INTO TABLE my_hive_table PARTITION(dt='2011-11-11');" Right now this is not possible. What do you think? Which classes should be changed?
