Adesh Kumar Rao created HIVE-25553: -------------------------------------- Summary: Support Map data-type in Arrow format Key: HIVE-25553 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-25553 Project: Hive Issue Type: Improvement Components: llap, Serializers/Deserializers Reporter: Adesh Kumar Rao Assignee: Adesh Kumar Rao Fix For: 4.0.0
Currently ArrowColumnarBatchSerDe converts map datatype as a list of structs data-type (where stuct is containing the key-value pair of the map). This causes issues when reading Map datatype using llap-ext-client as it reads a list of structs instead. HiveWarehouseConnector which uses the llap-ext-client throws exception when the schema (containing Map data type) is different from actual data (list of structs). Fixing this issue requires upgrading arrow version (where map data-type is supported), modifying ArrowColumnarBatchSerDe and corresponding Serializer/Deserializer to not use list as a workaround for map and use the arrow map data-type instead. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
