Samuel Yuan created HIVE-4046: --------------------------------- Summary: Column masking Key: HIVE-4046 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-4046 Project: Hive Issue Type: New Feature Components: CLI, Metastore, Query Processor Affects Versions: 0.11.0 Reporter: Samuel Yuan Assignee: Samuel Yuan
Sometimes data in a table needs to be kept around but made inaccessible. Right now it is possible to offline a table or a partition, but not a specific column of a partition. Also, accessing an offlined table results in an error. With this change, it will be possible to mask a column at the partition level, causing all further queries to that column to return null. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
