----------------------------------
Summary: Add HiveHBaseTableSnapshotInputFormat
Key: HIVE-6584
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6584
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: HBase Handler
Reporter: Nick Dimiduk
HBASE-8369 provided mapreduce support for reading from HBase table snapsopts.
This allows a MR job to consume a stable, read-only view of an HBase table
directly off of HDFS. Bypassing the online region server API provides a nice
performance boost for the full scan. HBASE-10642 is backporting that feature to
0.94/0.96 and also adding a {{mapred}} implementation. Once that's available,
we should add an input format. A follow-on patch could work out how to
integrate this functionality into the StorageHandler, similar to how HIVE-6473
integrates the HFileOutputFormat into existing table definitions.
