> Key: IMPALA-11534
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-11534
> Project: IMPALA
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Catalog
> Reporter: Quanlong Huang
> Assignee: Sai Hemanth Gantasala
> Priority: Critical
>
> EventProcessor will ignore trivial ALTER_TABLE events that only modify
> tblproperties like "transient_lastDdlTime", "totalSize",
> "numFilesErasureCoded", and "numFiles" (IMPALA-8579). For other kinds of
> non-rename ALTER_TABLE events, it will trigger a full refresh on the table,
> which is expensive when there are tens of thousands of partitions.
> We can actually skip reloading file metadata for some ALTER_TABLE events,
> e.g. events that
> * changing table comment
> * adding/dropping columns
> * changing column definition (name/type/comment)
> * changing ownership
> * setting customized tblproperties
