Edward Capriolo commented on HIVE-30:
-------------------------------------

I do understand the concept of having a session server. A simplified superset 
of meta store and data operations would be a good thing. A lite client is 
better then the 'fat client' that exists now. I understand that Thift is 
language neutral but I see the thrift server looks like it is implemented in 
c++ (correct me if I am wrong.)

Playing devils advocate:

Can the superset be a pure Java facade and thrift jdbc on top of that? 

That being said, if a SessionServer is out there I will gladly hook into it.

> Hive needs a web interface. The initial checkin should have:
> * simple schema browsing
> * query submission
> * query history (similar to MySQL's SHOW PROCESSLIST)
> A suggested feature: the ability to have a query notify the user when it's 
> completed.
> Edward Capriolo has expressed some interest in driving this process.
