Joydeep Sen Sarma commented on HIVE-1620:
-----------------------------------------

if we are overwriting a table ('insert overwrite table') - do we make sure that 
if the query/job fails in between - then some of the files (from maps/reduces 
that did succeed) are not left in the table's directory?

> Patch to write directly to S3 from Hive

> 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.
