Joydeep Sen Sarma commented on HADOOP-4101:
-------------------------------------------

ok - Ashish just walked us through a couple of scenarios:

- BI tool has server side. in this case the approach in this patch might work - 
but the concern about setting up classpaths and the suitability of running 
hadoop code setting classloaders and stuff on the same JVM as the BI server is 
suspect. At the minimum this has significant integration issues for each BI 
server.

- BI tool does not have a server side - only a client. I think this is a very 
common scenario and something which we should try to cover (since the whole 
premise of hadoop/hive is to avoid spending a lot of money - which is what BI 
tools with server side will require). In this case - the approach in this patch 
will be hard to make work because of firewalling issues that i had mentioned in 
the previous post (even if all the technical issues like hive treatment of 
windows paths are resolved).

hopefully this captures the issues more accurately.

> In many DW and BI systems, the data are stored in RDBMS for now such as 
> oracle, mysql, postgresql ... for reporting, charting and etc.
> It would be useful to be able to import data from RDBMS and export data to 
> RDBMS using JDBC connections.
> If Hive support JDBC connections, It wll be much easier to use 3rd party
