> Project: HCatalog
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Affects Versions: 0.4.1
> Reporter: Vandana Ayyalasomayajula

> There are presently three ways to issue HCatalog DDL commands:
> Command line interface
> REST APIs (upcoming)
> HiveMetaStore Client
> Presently, java developers go through the Hive meta store (HMS) client
> interface to issue HCatalog DDl commands. Though the HMS client interface is
> public, it is not intended for public users. According to the hive user
> mailing list, the HMS client is not a public API and is subject to change in
> the future. So, it will be a good idea to have a java APIs in HCatalog which
> will provide a protect users from the changes made to the hive meta store
> client. Also, the under the covers either the Rest APIS or the hive metastore
> client can be used to provide end users with the required data.
