Shreepadma Venugopalan commented on HIVE-3443:
----------------------------------------------
I'm not adding any code that is specific to Haivvreo to Hive, nor is this patch
supporting the change from Haivvreo to AvroSerde. Note that this tool is
specifically intended for migration to HA and **not** to support change from
Haivvreo to AvroSerde.
This patch makes the metatool more flexible and generic to allow the users to
update both Haivvreo and AvroSerde specific metadata that resides in the
metastore. If its not Hive's responsibility to support non-ASF code such as
Haivvreo, then Haivvreo specific property such as schema.url shouldn't be past
of the metastore in the first place. Given that it is and users need a way to
migrate to HA, there is not a better and a convenient way to do this migration
other than make Metatool flexible enough to take in serdeParamKey from the
user. This change is fixing what you are specifically objecting to i.e., Hive
shouldn't know about Haivvreo. With this patch, Hive Metatool will be oblivious
to whether its updating Haivvreo or AvroSerde metadata.
