Greetings, I'm supporting a client that makes extensive use of Hive in various processes. Recently the client chose to implement Hive 0.13's SQL Standard Authorization feature as part of an overall data governance policy. Meanwhile, several groups of users use Sqoop both for imports from and exports to Oracle databases. You can imagine my difficulty - non-privileged users can no longer connect to the metastore or directly read/write files in the Hive warehouse, so Sqoop no longer works for them.
Is there any notion of supporting using Hive as a JDBC sink/source (thereby properly using the HiveServer2 interface with the Hive JDBC driver) in Sqoop? Thanks, Phil
