Switch from using hcatalog as the reserve keyword)
> Switch from using hcatalog to hive as the reserve keyword
> ---------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HAWQ-501
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HAWQ-501
> Project: Apache HAWQ
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: External Tables, Hcatalog, PXF
> Reporter: Shivram Mani
> Assignee: Goden Yao
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: backlog
>
>
> An alternative means of accessing hive tables is for the user to use hcatalog
> as the keyword eg: table default.customers will be accessed as
> hcatalog.default.customers.
> The end user must not be aware of the underlying catalog store and should
> instead only be aware of hive/hbase/hdfs.
> The above table can instead be accessed via hive.default.customers.
> This allows us to expand this approach to also work with other datasources
> once schema auto discovery is complete HAWQ-450 and HAWQ-500
> A file on HBase can be accessed using hbase.<tablename>
