Hi all, I'm happy to announce that the Hive community is organizing a Hive user group meeting in the Bay Area next month. The details can be found at https://www.meetup.com/Hive-User-Group-Meeting/events/249641278/
The format of this meetup will be slightly different from previous ones. There will be one hour dedicated to lightning talks, followed by a group discussion on the future of the Hive Metastore. We are inviting talk proposals from Hive users as well as developers at this time. Please contact either myself (takiar.sa...@gmail.com), Vihang Karajgaonkar (vih...@cloudera.com), or Peter Vary (pv...@cloudera.com) with proposals. We currently have 5 openings. Please let me know if you have any questions or suggestions. Thanks, Sahil
