Yong Zhang commented on HIVE-6147:
----------------------------------
I was looking for this feature, as Hbase itself is hard to handle 1 to M
relationship, or support nest structure data, if we are only using Hbase as a
DW storage. If we can store the AVRO bytes in one column family of Hbase table,
and export that Avro schema out in the Hive, that can give us random
update/insert the data as AVRO in Hbase, and use it in Hive or MR jobs
generated from Hive.
> Support avro data stored in HBase columns

> Presently, the HBase Hive integration supports querying only primitive data
> types in columns. It would be nice to be able to store and query Avro objects
> in HBase columns by making them visible as structs to Hive. This will allow
> Hive to perform ad hoc analysis of HBase data which can be deeply structured.
