Xuefu Zhang commented on HIVE-10385: ------------------------------------ Not sure if I understand the request correctly. If we load a table with dynamic partitioning w/o creating these partitions at the end, why do we even bother using dynamic partitioning at all. A use case would help. > Optionally disable partition creation to speedup ETL jobs > --------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-10385 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-10385 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Hive > Reporter: Slava Markeyev > Priority: Minor > Attachments: HIVE-10385.patch > > > ETL jobs that create dynamic partitions with high cardinality perform the > expensive step of metastore partition creation after query completion. Until > bulk partition creation can be optimized there should be a way of optionally > skipping this step. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
