Gwen Shapira commented on SQOOP-1804:
-------------------------------------

Looks good.

Two questions for consideration:
1. Do we want to have a separate table for keys? This will allow us to have an 
API to list all available outputs (for GUI mostly), without expensive "select 
distinct" on what can be a largish table.

2. Do we need to separate outputs and counters? Perhaps they are both metadata 
and we can roll counters into the new table? Ryan Blue may have an opinion 
here, since we are touching on Metadata management.

In my experience, customers will be interested in information like:
- Last value
- How was the data split between mappers (#rows per mapper)
- How many rows total
- Min / Max / Avg of specific columns in the data 
- How long it took to Sqoop (end to end)
- Number of errors

Are these metrics? counters? outputs? is there a need to store them separately?

Interested in your thoughts here.
