Summary: Include Column-Remarks
Key: SQOOP-3387
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SQOOP-3387
Project: Sqoop
Issue Type: Wish
Components: connectors, metastore
Affects Versions: 1.4.7
Reporter: Tomas Sebastian Hätälä
Fix For: 1.5.0
In most RDBMS it is possible to enter comments/ remarks for table and view
columns. That way a user can obtain additional information regarding the data
and how to use it.
With the avro file format it would be possible to store this information in the
schema file using the "doc"-tag. At the moment this is, however, left blanc.
