Jihoon Son commented on TAJO-283:
---------------------------------

The most advantage of supporting the column partition is the compatibility with 
Hive.
Since many Hive users already use the column partition, more users can consider 
Tajo as the replacement of Hive if the column partition is supported.
As you said, the column partition can incur a problem when there are a large 
number of partitions.
We should devise a solution to handle it.

In my opinion, supporting the lucene index looks great!
Since unstructured data are generally processed in the Hadoop world, I think 
that Tajo also has a need to provide the processing of unstructured data as 
well as the relational data.
Since Lucene is optimized for processing documents, it would be useful in Tajo, 
too.
But, it should be transparent to Tajo users and its query should be presented 
in a SQL-like form.

Thanks for your detailed response and great suggestion.

> Table partitioning gives many facilities to maintain large tables. First of 
> all, it enables the data management system to prune many input data which are 
> actually not necessary. In addition, it gives the system more optimization  
> opportunities  that exploit the physical layouts.
> Basically, Tajo should follow the RDBMS-style partitioning system, including 
> range, list, hash, and so on. In order to keep Hive compatibility, we need to 
> add Hive partition type that does not exists in existing DBMS systems.
