---------------------------------
Summary: Handle schema change in ExternalSort
Key: DRILL-6829
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-6829
Project: Apache Drill
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Aman Sinha
While we continue to enhance the schema provision and metastore aspects in
Drill, we also should explore what it means to be truly schema-less such that
we can better handle \{semi, un}structured data, data sitting in DBs that store
JSON documents (e.g Mongo, MapR-DB).
The blocking operators are the main hurdles in this goal (other operators also
need to be smarter about this but the problem is harder for the blocking
operators). This Jira is specifically about ExternalSort.
