Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-6806: -------------------------------------- I added STORED AS AVRO to the DDL wikidoc: * [Create Table -- see file_format (at the end of the syntax) | https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+DDL#LanguageManualDDL-CreateTable] {code} file_format: : SEQUENCEFILE ... | AVRO (Note: Only available starting with Hive 0.14.0) {code} * [Row Format, Storage Format, and SerDe | https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+DDL#LanguageManualDDL-RowFormat,StorageFormat,andSerDe] "Use STORED AS AVRO for Avro files in Hive 0.14.0 and later (see Avro SerDe)." > CREATE TABLE should support STORED AS AVRO > ------------------------------------------ > > Key: HIVE-6806 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6806 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Serializers/Deserializers > Affects Versions: 0.12.0 > Reporter: Jeremy Beard > Assignee: Ashish Kumar Singh > Priority: Minor > Labels: Avro, TODOC14 > Fix For: 0.14.0 > > Attachments: HIVE-6806.1.patch, HIVE-6806.2.patch, HIVE-6806.3.patch, > HIVE-6806.patch > > > Avro is well established and widely used within Hive, however creating > Avro-backed tables requires the messy listing of the SerDe, InputFormat and > OutputFormat classes. > Similarly to HIVE-5783 for Parquet, Hive would be easier to use if it had > native Avro support. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
