Jakob Homan commented on GIRAPH-93:
-----------------------------------
Actually, I see what you're trying to do. You want to store the output of a
Vertex job into Hive. You can do this by writing the data to an HDFS directory
that Hive is watching as a table. It's safe to do this with an external table,
though with the new indexing features, etc. it shouldn't be done for a managed
table. For this, you'd go directly through the metastore API, although this is
what HCatalog is also working on, so it is worth making sure we don't duplicate
work. Also, via HCatalog we get Pig for free.
