----------------------------------------

[~bharathv], [~vihangk1] Do you know how to let Hive3 show the "sys" and 
"information_schema" databases? They are not shown in the minicluster by 
default. There are few documents about this feature...

> Blacklist "sys" and "information_schema" databases from Hive

> HMS exposes these two databases "sys" and "information_schema" which contain 
> tables that expose the underlying meta information in a queryable format. 
> However, Impala cannot read them because they come with custom serde that 
> Impala doesn't support.
> From a usability point of view, we should black list those databases from 
> loading, so that users don't see them when querying the database list. I 
> think that is reasonable because they can't query them anyway.
