Hi all:
AFAIK, the integration test of profile Sqoop2-hadoop100 has
failed for a long time, I cannot even remember when it started to fail.
Recently, Hari helped to disabled the polling of git for this build to avoid
FAILURE message on every commit. As We are all focusing on the implementation
of the feature on Hadoop 2, and no one, as I know (maybe not correct), are
working on Hadoop 1 support. I am wondering whether it is necessary to support
Hadoop 1 in Sqoop 2.
From my perspective, it makes sense that Sqoop 1 support Hadoop
1, whilst Sqoop 2 support Hadoop 2. Actually it works like this way. The Hadoop
1 support on Sqoop 2 does not work now. So I am encouraged to raise this topic,
is it ok to remove Hadoop 1 support on Sqoop 2?
Sorry for my rude to ask such a question, since the original
purpose for Sqoop 2 is to support all versions of Hadoop, like Hive. However,
it will cost huge effort on compatible work, which we could not offer now. As a
result, shall we remove the Hadoop 1 support for the time being at least? And
we could add it back in the future when we have enough resource on it.
Any comment will be appreciated. Thanks.
Regards
Richard
