hi everyone
I wrote some hive udfs you can use with a macro to process complex types without lateral view or custom udfs. I wrote about them here: https://tech.trivago.com/2019/01/30/a-new-functional-approach-to-complex-types-in-apache-hive/ they are open sourced aswell. https://github.com/trivago/hive-lambda-sting Let me know what you think. either here on the mailing list or on reddit https://www.reddit.com/r/bigdata/comments/aldthz/hive_complex_type_processing_via_hql_macros_no/ Thanks to trivago for offering me the time to do this
