Summary: Add support in ParquetHiveSerde to create table schema from a parquet file Key: HIVE-8950 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-8950 Project: Hive Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Ashish Kumar Singh Assignee: Ashish Kumar Singh Parquet-76 and Parquet-47 ask for creating parquet backed tables without having to specify the column names and types. As, parquet files store schema in their footer, it is possible to generate hive schema from parquet file's metadata. This will improve the usability of parquet backed tables. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
