Goden Yao resolved HAWQ-501. ---------------------------- Resolution: Won't Fix > Switch from using hcatalog to hive as the reserve keyword > --------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HAWQ-501 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HAWQ-501 > Project: Apache HAWQ > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: External Tables, Hcatalog, PXF > Reporter: Shivram Mani > Assignee: Goden Yao > Priority: Minor > Fix For: backlog > > > An alternative means of accessing hive tables is for the user to use hcatalog > as the keyword eg: table default.customers will be accessed as > hcatalog.default.customers. > The end user must not be aware of the underlying catalog store and should > instead only be aware of hive/hbase/hdfs. > The above table can instead be accessed via hive.default.customers. > This allows us to expand this approach to also work with other datasources > once schema auto discovery is complete HAWQ-450 and HAWQ-500 > A file on HBase can be accessed using hbase.<tablename> -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
