------------------------------------
Summary: IMPALA-5599 broke a client software due to precision
change in date-time string
Key: IMPALA-6225
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-6225
Project: IMPALA
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Backend
Affects Versions: Impala 2.11.0
Reporter: Zoram Thanga
Assignee: Zoram Thanga
IMPALA-5599 changed the precision of Start Time and End Time date-time strings
of query profiles to microseconds. This ended up breaking compatibility with a
management client software.
This JIRA is being raised to restore the precision to what it was (nanoseconds)
, to address the breakage. Longer term, the interface contract between Impala
and such client software will be made stricter and more efficient, and avoid
having clients parse what are meant to be human-readable information.
The Impala testing also needs to be enhanced to ensure interface contracts are
not broken.
