--------------------------------------------------------
we've done a test about this issue, dataset: 700m records.
first approach where each distinct count was computed one by one, each of them
needed 119 seconds, that meant 10 distinct count need at least 1190 seconds.
second approach where distinct keys were distinguished by a tag, 10 distinct
count need 148 seconds.

> Hive TypeInfo/ObjectInspector to support union (besides struct, array, and
> map)
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HIVE-537
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-537
> Project: Hadoop Hive
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Zheng Shao
> Assignee: Zheng Shao
>
> There are already some cases inside the code that we use heterogeneous data:
> JoinOperator, and UnionOperator (in the sense that different parents can pass
> in records with different ObjectInspectors).
> We currently use Operator's parentID to distinguish that. However that
> approach does not extend to more complex plans that might be needed in the
> future.
> We will support the union type like this:
> {code}
> TypeDefinition:
> type: primitivetype | structtype | arraytype | maptype | uniontype
> uniontype: "union" "<" tag ":" type ("," tag ":" type)* ">"
> Example:
> union<0:int,1:double,2:array<string>,3:struct<a:int,b:string>>
> Example of serialized data format:
> We will first store the tag byte before we serialize the object. On
> deserialization, we will first read out the tag byte, then we know what is
> the current type of the following object, so we can deserialize it
> successfully.
> Interface for ObjectInspector:
> interface UnionObjectInspector {
> /** Returns the array of OIs that are for each of the tags
> */
> ObjectInspector[] getObjectInspectors();
> /** Return the tag of the object.
> */
> byte getTag(Object o);
> /** Return the field based on the tag value associated with the Object.
> */
> Object getField(Object o);
> };
> {code}
