Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-9453:
--------------------------------------
Since it isn't the 1.2 release after all, I'm linking this issue to HIVE-9752
(Documentation for HBase metastore).
Also, the new tool to dump out the contents of the metastore should be
documented (Alan's comment, 30/Jan/15).
> Initial patch [hbase-metastore branch]
> --------------------------------------
>
> Key: HIVE-9453
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-9453
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: Metastore
> Affects Versions: hbase-metastore-branch
> Reporter: Alan Gates
> Assignee: Alan Gates
> Fix For: hbase-metastore-branch

>
> This initial patch has several important features:
> # HBaseStore, a new implementation of RawStore that stores the data in HBase.
> # Subclasses of the thrift metastore objects to remove the massive
> duplication of data where every partition contains a nearly identical storage
> descriptor.
> # Caches for catalog objects and statistics so that repeated metastore calls
> don't result in repeated calls against HBase.
> Currently this "works" to the point that "load table" and "select" work. I
> have not tested any other statements, and I suspect most fail. There is no
> security, no authorization, and a no a lot of other things.
