Currently, in Hive the choice is hard coded to be > SessionHiveMetaStoreClient in org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.metadata.Hive. There > is no other direct reference to SessionHiveMetaStoreClient other than the > hard coded class name in Hive.java and the QL component operates only on the > IMetaStoreClient interface so the change would be minimal and it would be > quite similar to how an implementation of RawStore is specified and loaded in > hive-metastore. One use case this change would serve would be one where a > user wishes to use an implementation of this interface without the dependency > on the Thrift server. > > Thank you, > Austin -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
