> Hive 0.13 has introduced Streaming support which is itself transactional in
> nature and fits well with Flume's transaction model.
> Short overview of Hive's Streaming support on which this sink is based can
> be found here:
> http://hive.apache.org/javadocs/r0.13.1/api/hcatalog/streaming/index.html
> This jira is for creating a sink that would continuously stream data into
> Hive tables using the above APIs. The primary goal being that the data
> streamed by the sink should be instantly queryable (using say Hive or Pig)
> without requiring additional post-processing steps on behalf of the users.
> Sink should manage the creation of new partitions periodically if needed.
