Can anyone helpout with the TIMESTAMP literals piece. So far, I've gotten

Select day_timestamp from lu_day where day_timestamp > 
to_utc_timestamp('2012-06-04 00:00:00', 'GMT') to work ok and give me back 
timestamps greater than the one in the literal. Is this the best function to 
get this to work or is there something else I should be using

Didn't quite follow your first comment. I get the write-your-own UDF part but 
was wondering how others have been transitioning from STRING dates to TIMESTAMP 
dates and getting filtering, partition pruning, etc to work with constants

How do I set-up a filter constant for TIMESTAMP datatype. In Hive 0.7 since 
timestamps were represented as strings a query like this would return data

select * from LU_day where day_date ='2010-01-01 00:00:00';

But now with day_date as a TIMESTAMP column it doesn't. Is there some type of a 
TO_TIMESTAMP function in hive to convert the string constant into a TIMESTAMP 
one

As a workaround I can do

select * from LU_DAY where TO_DATE(day_date) = '2010-01-01' but that would be a 
problem for partitioning pruning, etc
