Namit Jain commented on HIVE-599:
---------------------------------
After more discussions with Ashish and Venky, there is no urgent need of python
UDFs. Since there is a lot of active work in C python going on currently, it
may not be a good idea to standardize on Jython
(which is already a few versions behind).
Min, if you want to explore UDFs in different languages, please go ahead. I
would explore more on item 1. - embedded Hive SQL into Python.

> While Hive does SQL it would be very powerful to be able to embed that SQL in
> languages like python in such a way that the hive query is also able to
> invoke python functions seemlessly. One possibility is to explore integration
> with Dumbo. Another is to see if the internal map_reduce.py tool can be open
> sourced as a Hive contrib.
> Other thoughts?
