Sushanth Sowmyan resolved HIVE-1588.
------------------------------------
Resolution: Invalid
Per discussion in the September Hive Dev Meetup, we'd decided to not follow the
approach of having the client do filesystem operations, and introduce
authentication/authorization and have the metastore server do the operations as
the client user in HIVE-1476.
Thus, this jira is now not needed and can be closed.
> Allowing Hive's metastore when it runs as a thrift service to run as a pure
> metadata service and not perform any filesystem operations

> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Metastore
> Reporter: Sushanth Sowmyan
>
> To integrate with Secure Hadoop, filesystem accesses would require an auth
> token, which has an expiry. Thus, if we were running hive with a thrift
> metastore server, the server process would need to frequently renew tokens.
> One potential way of dealing with that is to have the metastore server be a
> pure metadata service, and not perform any filesystem operations, which is
> taking the approach HIVE-1476 takes a step further, extending it for reads as
> well as writes.
