Nick Dimiduk updated HIVE-2373:
-------------------------------

    Component/s: HBase Handler
    
> Importing hive tables into hbase+hive requires a lot of work which often can 
> be implied

> The HiveQL way of creating a HBase table looks something like 
> REATE TABLE bla(id_1 type_1, id_2 type_2..., id_n type_n)
> STORED BY 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.hbase.HBaseStorageHandler'
> WITH SERDEPROPERTIES ("hbase.columns.mapping" = ":key,cf:id_2, cf:id_3") 
> TBLPROPERTIES ("hbase.table.name" = "blah");
> But in most cases huge amounts of this can be assumed from the original table 
> description. In fact in most cases, especially ones when that data was 
> imported from MySQL it is trivial to generate at least one HBase backing for 
> that data. I currently wrote a python script which our users can use to make 
> things simpler. Would anyone be interested in that script? Would it make 
> sense to make it easy from Hive? I hate to add reserved words so any 
> suggestions are welcome.
