Nick Dimiduk commented on HIVE-2365:
------------------------------------
After much fighting with input data and ordering, I have my first little
improvement. I've started a [WIP
branch|https://github.com/ndimiduk/hive/tree/2365-sql-support-hbase-bulkloads]
over on Github. I will regularly rewrite it's history, but if you'd like to
follow along, I'll take comments as they come. Once things take shape, I'll
squash into a patch and attach here.
The patch posted supports generating HFiles from a table defined using the
HBaseStorageHandler. The next improvement here is to actually rewrite the plan
to introduce a step that invokes LoadIncrementalHFiles. After that, we can get
rid of the need for specifying hfile.family.path, just detect it from the
column family from the mapping attribute and write the HFiles to a temporary
location before loading.
