--------------------------------------
Summary: Use OutputCommitter to get rid of requirement of client
being alive for long running queries
Key: HIVE-3489
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3489
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Ashutosh Chauhan
There is a bunch of work (depending on query) which hive client does once query
finishes. This has multiple effects which would be nice to avoid. Few of these
work items include:
* Moving temp files / dirs around to their final destination.
* Creating empty files if required.
* Updating metastore with metadata.
* More ?
If we start using {{OutputCommitter}} then clients can fire and forget, they
won't need to be around for all the time query is executing. Plus, since
processing is going to happen in cluster, this further makes client lightweight.
