                 Key: HIVE-1223
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1223
             Project: Hadoop Hive
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Metastore
    Affects Versions: 0.6.0
            Reporter: John Sichi
            Assignee: John Sichi
             Fix For: 0.6.0


The exact requirements remain to be determined here, since there are a lot of 
possibilities for what this could mean.  Using HBase as an example, one 
possibility would be physical partitions such as creating one HBase table per 
partition, whereas another would be virtual partitions such as one partition 
per timestamp (e.g. to provide snapshot semantics).
