Ranjit Mathew commented on HCATALOG-36:
---------------------------------------
Yes, writing to multiple partitions is a sorely-needed feature that we're
looking forward to in HCatalog 0.2.
We process several logs in a MapReduce Job and write out the processed data
into various
tables managed by HCatalog. There are multiple tables even for a single
log-type, to separate
out the "core" data required in most queries from the "peripheral" data
required only in some
queries, not to mention to keep the schema for each table relatively simple.
