Namit Jain commented on HIVE-1620: ---------------------------------- The approach looks good, but can you move all the checks to compile time instead. I mean, while generating a plan, create a S3FileSinkOperator instead of FileSinkOperator, if the destination under consideration is on S3 FileSystem - there will be no move task etc. The explain work will show the correct plan The commit for S3FileSystem will be a no-op. That way, FileSinkOperator does not change much > Patch to write directly to S3 from Hive > --------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-1620 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1620 > Project: Hadoop Hive > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Vaibhav Aggarwal > Assignee: Vaibhav Aggarwal > Attachments: HIVE-1620.patch > > > We want to submit a patch to Hive which allows user to write files directly > to S3. > This patch allow user to specify an S3 location as the table output location > and hence eliminates the need of copying data from HDFS to S3. > Users can run Hive queries directly over the data stored in S3. > This patch helps integrate hive with S3 better and quicker. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
