             Summary: Support Type check/conversion in dynamic partition column
                 Key: HIVE-10362
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-10362
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Query Processor, Types
    Affects Versions: 1.0.0
            Reporter: Chaoyu Tang
            Assignee: Chaoyu Tang


There are quite a lot of issues associated with the non-noramlized or 
type-mismatched values for partition column. Hive has many ways to introduce 
such problematic data. HIVE-10307 mainly provides the support to type 
check/convert/normalize the partition column value in static partition 
specification. This JIRA tries to deal with the partition column type  in 
dynamic partition insert. Currently any data can be inserted as a partition 
column value as long as it is quoted as a string. For example,
create table dynparttypechecknum (key int, value string) partitioned by (part 
int);
insert into dynparttypechecknum partition (part) select key, value, '00001' 
from src limit 1;
show partitions dynparttypechecknum;
--
part=00001

The partition column value is non-normalized int 00001. It causes some 
unnecessary problems such as integer partition column JDO filter pushdown (see 
HIVE-6052) and others like HIVE-10210.
