I would like to be able to read an Avro file as a Table in Hive. I have looked at the documentation, but cannot see anything about how to extend Hive to other file types.
>From what it looks like, Serializer and Deserializer are for fields, and stuff >them into a SequenceFile. I don't want to control how to serialize a field, or a record individually. I want to specify how to read from and write records/fields to an Avro file. Where would I look for information on how to support a custom file format? Thanks, -Scott
