---------------------------------
Summary: Cross Database Support for Indexes and Partitions (or all
DDL statements)
Key: HIVE-4086
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-4086
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Database/Schema, ODBC, SQL
Affects Versions: 0.9.0
Environment: Writing a query tool in .NET connecting with ODBC to
Hadoop on Linux.
Reporter: Todd Wilson
I'd like to see more cross-database support. I'm using a Cloudera
implementation on Hive .9. Currently, you can create new databases, you can
create tables and views in those databases, but you cannot create indexes or
partitions on those tables. Likewise, commands like show partitions or show
indexes will only work on table in the default database. This would probably
also affect statements like Alter Table and Recover Partitions. Probably also
something like Create Function, but if you want to keep all functions being
created in the default database that would work. I would be more interested in
full cross-database support for tables and views to start. Functions for
example could all be created in default. Thank you.
