--------------------------------------

             Summary: Use stable Hive API (if one exists) for communication 
with Metastore
                 Key: SPARK-4114
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-4114
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: SQL
            Reporter: Patrick Wendell
            Priority: Blocker


If one exists, we should use a stable API for our communication with the Hive 
metastore. Specifically, we don't want to have to support compiling against 
multiple versions of the Hive library to support users with different versions 
of the Hive metastore.

I think this is what HCatalog API's are intended for, but I don't know enough 
about Hive and HCatalog to be sure.
