Namit Jain commented on HIVE-707:
---------------------------------
I agree - but I think it can be done in a follow-up jira, since the two are
kind of independent
> add group_concat

> Key: HIVE-707

> Issue Type: New Feature

> Moving the discussion to a new jira:
> I've implemented group_cat() in a rush, and found something difficult to
> slove:
> 1. function group_cat() has a internal order by clause, currently, we can't
> implement such an aggregation in hive.
> 2. when the strings will be group concated are too large, in another words,
> if data skew appears, there is often not enough memory to store such a big
> result.
