    +title: Writing Data to HDFS
    +---
    +
    +The PXF HDFS plug-in supports writable external tables using the 
`HdfsTextSimple` and `SequenceWritable` profiles.  You might create a writable 
table to export data from a HAWQ internal table to HDFS.
    +
    +This section describes how to use these PXF profiles to create writable 
external tables.
    +
    +**Note**: You cannot directly query data in a HAWQ writable table.  After 
creating the external writable table, you must create a HAWQ readable external 
table accessing the HDFS file, then query that table. ??You can also create a 
Hive table to access the HDFS file.??
    --- End diff --
    
    This note could use some editing.  Something like:  Tables that you create 
with the SequenceWritable profile can only be used for INSERT operations. If 
you want to query the inserted data, you must define a separate external table 
that references the new HDFS file, using the ???? or ??? profiles.


> create new documentation topic for PXF writable profiles
