Daniel Dai commented on PIG-2513:
---------------------------------
Take a look of HCATALOG-182, a REST API for HCat/Pig/Hive/MR.
> Persistent PigServer sessions should be available through a RESTful API

> Key: PIG-2513
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-2513
> Project: Pig
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: tools
> Affects Versions: 0.11
> Reporter: Russell Jurney
> Labels: api, happy, pig, pigpen, pigserver, service, usability,
> web
>
> As compared to other tools like HIVE (which can use existing SQL-oriented
> tools through ODBC), Pig lacks for development tools. Specifically, Pig's
> front-end has fallen behind owing to the complexity of maintaining PigPen and
> PigPen's being embedded in Eclipse.
> I propose to create a simple web server to accompany Pig that would enable
> the creation of Pig sessions, and pubsub to these sessions. Data can be
> returned in JSON.
> This functionality would enable pig tools to flourish, while keeping
> presentation concerns out of Pig.
