Swarnim Kulkarni commented on HIVE-6584:
----------------------------------------
+1 on this one. This should be very nice addition to the existing integration.
> Add HiveHBaseTableSnapshotInputFormat

> Key: HIVE-6584
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6584
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: HBase Handler
> Reporter: Nick Dimiduk
>
> HBASE-8369 provided mapreduce support for reading from HBase table snapsopts.
> This allows a MR job to consume a stable, read-only view of an HBase table
> directly off of HDFS. Bypassing the online region server API provides a nice
> performance boost for the full scan. HBASE-10642 is backporting that feature
> to 0.94/0.96 and also adding a {{mapred}} implementation. Once that's
> available, we should add an input format. A follow-on patch could work out
> how to integrate this functionality into the StorageHandler, similar to how
> HIVE-6473 integrates the HFileOutputFormat into existing table definitions.
