Xuefu Zhang commented on HIVE-10668:
------------------------------------

Here are a few alternatives:
1. PERSISTED IN
2. RESIDE IN

I'm not sure which one is better, but "PERSISTED" seems more computer-like 
though the word itself is "misused".

Of a different note, I assume that a table can be "altered" so as to change the 
storage tier after creation.


> Allow users to specify storage tiers for a table

> Starting with Hadoop 2.6, HDFS files can be assigned to storage tiers.  
> Current supported options include SSD and single copy in memory.
> It is already possible to default all temp tables to a given tier 
> (HIVE-7313).  
> It should be possible to specify for a given table, temp table, or when they 
> are added, materialized views (HIVE-10459).  It should also be possible to 
> change the storage tier for a given table or view.
> This should be done in a way that it is not tied explicitly to HDFS (ie, 
> other systems may have alternate storage tiers or related concepts).
