Volodymyr Vysotskyi updated DRILL-7313: --------------------------------------- Description: Currently, when an external Hive MaprDB table is queried using hive plugin with enabled {{store.hive.maprdb_json.optimize_scan_with_native_reader}}, some queries may fail due to soft schema change, though Hive knows actual data types. For example, when we have a table with several fields, and one of them has only several non-null values, queries with grouping by such field will fail due to schema change. The goal of this Jira is to allow using types from Hive when a non-existing field is created, so it will allow avoiding such issues. In the scope of this Jira is also added new session option {{store.hive.maprdb_json.all_text_mode}} to read all data from the maprDB JSON tables as VARCHAR when hive plugin is used and Drill native MaprDB JSON reader usage is enabled. was: Currently, when an external Hive MaprDB table is queried using hive plugin with enabled {{store.hive.maprdb_json.optimize_scan_with_native_reader}}, some queries may fail due to soft schema change, though Hive knows actual data types.
