Thanks for your interest. Please note this only highlights direction we are going. We may need a design doc for this. I was thinking of implement a connector in Flink that utilizes Hive's generic InputFormats and OutputFormats. This solves the problem of all data formats in Hive, as compared with solving the data formats one at a time (orc, parquet, etc.). However, my thought is pretty primitive and I need to take a closer look. Please also share your thoughts on this.

It seems that the complexity comes mostly from Hive side, and there will probably need a prototype and design. I will spend more time on this. Thus, if you don't mind I'm going to assign this back to myself. Once the design is completed, I'm sure there will be many subtasks to be created. I'd appreciate if you could help at that time.

If you want to use native formats in Hive, I feel an initial prototype is definitely needed for me to follow. For the direction of implementation, probably we can align with [~fhueske] also.

Yes, metadata integration is in progress and tracked by FLINK-10744. This one covers data aspect. We can only declare integration is is completed after the two are in place. Your contribution is certainly welcome. BTW, I'm currently coming up with a rough design and will be shared soon. I can image that a prototype is needed. > Create a Hive connector for Hive data access in Flink > - > > Key: FLINK-10729 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-10729 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Table API & SQL >Affects Versions: 1.6.2 >Reporter: Xuefu Zhang >Assignee: Xuefu Zhang >Priority: Major > > As part of Flink-Hive integration effort, it's important for Flink to access > (read/write) Hive data, which is the responsibility of Hive connector.
