---------------------------------------
What is the status of this issue? Is anyone actively working on it?
> Triggers when a new partition is created for a table
> ----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HIVE-788
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-788
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Zheng Shao
>
> One requirement for HIVE-787 is that users would like to run a command
> whenever a new partition of a Hive table gets created.
> There are several ways to achieve this functionality:
> A. Probe and wait: We can have the scripts running in a loop checking if a
> new partition is created.
> Pros: easy to write, easy to control
> Cons: will introduce another delay based on the probing interval.
> B. Triggered: The command is registered inside the hive metastore. Whenever a
> partition gets created, we run the registered command.
> Several questions around option B are:
> 1. whether to support registration of HiveQL or shell command;
> 2. which machine/environment to run the command;
> 3. what to do if the registered command failed.
