 # Background
 
-With the addition of [DEFAULT constraint]({{< ref "75969407" >}}) 
([HIVE-18726](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-18726)) user can 
define columns to have default value which will be used in case user doesn’t 
explicitly specify it while INSERTING data. For DEFAULT constraint to kick in 
user has to explicitly specify column schema leaving out the column name for 
which user would like the sytem to use DEFAULT value. e.g. INSERT INTO 
TABLE1(COL1, COL3) VALUES(1,3). This statement leaves COL2 from the schema so 
that Hive could insert DEFAULT value if it is defined. But if user wants to 
insert DEFAULT value without specifying column schema it is not possible to do 
so. This limitation could be overcome using DEFAULT keyword.
