Hi All,
I am using avro file format to load the data in to hive and source system
is Teradata. In the source i have a both NULL and empty string. But when
it landed in the hive its storing both as NULL only. For example
{
"type" : "record",
"name" : "Personal",
"fields" : [ {
"name" : "Id",
"type" : [ "null", "int" ]
}, {
"name" : "name",
"type" : [ "null", "string" ]
}, {
"name" : "age",
"type" : [ "null", "int" ]
}, {
"name" : "zipcode",
"type" : [ "null", "int" ] --> have tried as "type" :int,
"default" : ""
}]
}
Since integer value is empty in source, by above one comes as null as
defined i tried give "type" : int as well and comes as NULL.
Is there any way where i can get the empty string as it is in source.
Because in my landing hive table should contain both NULL and emptystring
and it has a different meaning for us . Your help would be appreciable.
Thank you
Regards,
Jegan
