Tim Robertson commented on HADOOP-3601:
---------------------------------------
"also looking for some advice on how we can organize things so that (say medium
term) we can do releases independent of hadoop."
Maven! It is so simple to change dependency versions and then when Hadoop
increments to say 0.18, you change your pom to reflect this and it is all
seamless for us all.
Really this is what maven is great for.
> Hive as a contrib project
> -------------------------
>
> Key: HADOOP-3601
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-3601
> Project: Hadoop Core
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Affects Versions: 0.17.0
> Reporter: Joydeep Sen Sarma
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: HiveTutorial.pdf
>
> Original Estimate: 1080h
> Remaining Estimate: 1080h

> Hive is a data warehouse built on top of flat files (stored primarily in
> HDFS). It includes:
> - Data Organization into Tables with logical and hash partitioning
> - A Metastore to store metadata about Tables/Partitions etc
> - A SQL like query language over object data stored in Tables
> - DDL commands to define and load external data into tables
> Hive's query language is executed using Hadoop map-reduce as the execution
> engine. Queries can use either single stage or multi-stage map-reduce. Hive
> has a native format for tables - but can handle any data set (for example
> json/thrift/xml) using an IO library framework.
> Hive uses Antlr for query parsing, Apache JEXL for expression evaluation and
> may use Apache Derby as an embedded database for MetaStore. Antlr has a BSD
> license and should be compatible with Apache license.
> We are currently thinking of contributing to the 0.17 branch as a contrib
> project (since that is the version under which it will get tested internally)
> - but looking for advice on the best release path.
