Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-11043:
----------------------------------------
Your specific concern seems to be about querying HBase with Hive. I would point
to PHOENIX-946. Hive could offload HBase data source queries to Phoenix, which
is running as a coprocessor and maintains its own schema-to-raw-table mapping
behind a DDL facade that Hive could just use.
> Users with table's read/write permission can't get table's description

> AccessController#preGetTableDescriptors only allow users with admin or create
> permission to get table's description.
> {quote}
> requirePermission("getTableDescriptors", nameAsBytes, null, null,
> Permission.Action.ADMIN, Permission.Action.CREATE);

> I think Users with table's read/write permission should also be able to get
> table's description.
> Eg: when create a hive table on HBase, hive will get the table description
> to check if the mapping is right. Usually the hive users only have the read
> permission of table.
