Hello Dimitris Tsirogiannis, I'd like you to reexamine a change. Please visit
http://gerrit.cloudera.org:8080/6495 to look at the new patch set (#18). Change subject: IMPALA-4166: Add SORT BY sql clause ...................................................................... IMPALA-4166: Add SORT BY sql clause This change adds support for adding SORT BY (...) clauses to CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE statements. Examples are: CREATE TABLE t (i INT, j INT, k INT) PARTITIONED BY (l INT) SORT BY (i, j); CREATE TABLE t SORT BY (int_col,id) LIKE u; CREATE TABLE t LIKE PARQUET '/foo' SORT BY (id,zip); ALTER TABLE t SORT BY (int_col,id); ALTER TABLE t SORT BY (); SORT BY columns can only be specified for Hdfs tables and effectiveness may vary based on storage type; for example TEXT tables will not see improved compression. The SORT BY clause must not contain clustering columns. The columns in the SORT BY clause are stored in the 'sort.by.columns' table property and will result in an additional SORT node being added to the plan before the final table sink. Specifying SORT BY columns also enables clustering during inserts, so the SORT node will contain all partitioning columns first, followed by the SORT BY columns. We do this because SORT BY columns add a SORT node to the plan and adding the clustering columns to the SORT node is cheap. SORT BY columns supersede the sortby() hint, which we will remove in a subsequent change (IMPALA-5144). Until then, it is possible to specify sort by columns using both ways at the same time and the column lists will be concatenated.
