Shengsheng Huang commented on HIVE-3472:
----------------------------------------
Since we've got a lot of discussion here about which approach to choose to
implement the SQL compliant parser. I opened a new sub-task entry HIVE-3561 so
that we can discuss it there.
> Build An Analytical SQL Engine for MapReduce
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HIVE-3472
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3472
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Affects Versions: 0.10.0
> Reporter: Shengsheng Huang
> Attachments: SQL-design.pdf
>
>
> While there are continuous efforts in extending Hive’s SQL support (e.g., see
> some recent examples such as HIVE-2005 and HIVE-2810), many widely used SQL
> constructs are still not supported in HiveQL, such as selecting from multiple
> tables, subquery in WHERE clauses, etc.
> We propose to build a SQL-92 full compatible engine (for MapReduce based
> analytical query processing) as an extension to Hive.
> The SQL frontend will co-exist with the HiveQL frontend; consequently, one
> can mix SQL and HiveQL statements in their queries (switching between HiveQL
> mode and SQL-92 mode using a “hive.ql.mode” parameter before each query
> statement). This way useful Hive extensions are still accessible to users.
