> The value component of a SERDEPROPERTIES key/value pair is currently limited
> to a maximum length of 767 characters. I believe that the motivation for
> limiting the length to
> 767 characters is that this value is the maximum allowed length of an index in
> a MySQL database running on the InnoDB engine:
> http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=13315
> * The Metastore OR mapping currently limits many fields (including
> SERDEPROPERTIES.PARAM_VALUE) to a maximum length of 767 characters despite
> the fact that these fields are not indexed.
> * The maximum length of a VARCHAR value in MySQL 5.0.3 and later is 65,535.
> * We can expect many users to hit the 767 character limit on
> SERDEPROPERTIES.PARAM_VALUE when using the hbase.columns.mapping
> serdeproperty to map a table that has many columns.
> I propose increasing the maximum allowed length of
> SERDEPROPERTIES.PARAM_VALUE to 8192.
