Hi Echo, I dont think there is any to prevent this. I had the same concern in hbase, but found out that it is assumed that user using the system are very much aware of it. I am into hive from last 3 months, was looking for some kind of way here, but no luck till now..

I was trying to apply certain level of security in our hive data warehouse, by modifying access mode of directories and files on hdfs to 755 I think it's good enough for a new user to remove data, however the user still can drop the table definition in hive cli, seems the "revoke" doesn't help much, is there any way to prevent this?
