------------------------------------

             Summary: Backwards incompatible change: Hive 3.1 reads back Avro 
and Parquet timestamps written by Hive 2.x incorrectly
                 Key: HIVE-21002
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-21002
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 3.1.1, 3.1.0
            Reporter: Zoltan Ivanfi


Hive 3.1 reads back Avro and Parquet timestamps written by Hive 2.x 
incorrectly. As an example session to demonstrate this problem, create a 
dataset using Hive version 2.x in America/Los_Angeles:
{code:sql}
hive> create table ts_‹format› (ts timestamp) stored as ‹format›;
hive> insert into ts_‹format› values (*‘2018-01-01 00:00:00.000’*);
{code}
Querying this table by issuing
{code:sql}
hive> select * from ts_‹format›;
{code}
from different time zones using different versions of Hive and different 
storage formats gives the following results:
|‹format›|Time zone|Hive 2.x|Hive 3.1|
|Avro and Parquet|America/Los_Angeles|2018-01-01 *00*:00:00.0|2018-01-01 
*08*:00:00.0|
|Avro and Parquet|Europe/Paris|2018-01-01 *09*:00:00.0|2018-01-01 *08*:00:00.0|
|Textfile and ORC|America/Los_Angeles|2018-01-01 00:00:00.0|2018-01-01 
00:00:00.0|
|Textfile and ORC|Europe/Paris|2018-01-01 00:00:00.0|2018-01-01 00:00:00.0|

*Hive 3.1 clearly gives different results than Hive 2.x for timestamps stored 
in Avro and Parquet formats.* Apache ORC behaviour has not changed because it 
was modified to adjust timestamps to retain backwards compatibility. Textfile 
behaviour has not changed, because its processing involves parsing and 
formatting instead of proper serializing and deserializing, so they inherently 
had LocalDateTime semantics even in Hive 2.x.
