Thejas M Nair commented on HIVE-9500:
-------------------------------------
[~aihuaxu] Thanks for clarifying that the input is actually in Avro format.
What part of query processing is the error happening ? Is it during some
internal serialization that LazySimpleSerde is getting used ? If that is the
case, maybe we should fix hive to use a better serde there.
> Support nested structs over 24 levels.

> Customer has deeply nested avro structure and is receiving the following
> error when performing queries.
> 15/01/09 20:59:29 ERROR ql.Driver: FAILED: SemanticException
> org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.SerDeException: Number of levels of nesting
> supported for LazySimpleSerde is 23 Unable to work with level 24
> Currently we support up to 24 levels of nested structs when
> hive.serialization.extend.nesting.levels is set to true, while the customers
> have the requirement to support more than that.
> It would be better to make the supported levels configurable or completely
> removed (i.e., we can support any number of levels).
