> Index tables have been removed from Hive as of HIVE-18715.
> However, in case users still have index tables defined in the metastore, we
> should keep the TableType.INDEX_TABLE enum around so that users can drop
> these tables. Without the enum defined Hive cannot do anything with them as
> it fails with IllegalArgumentException errors when trying to call
> TableType.valueOf() on INDEX_TABLE.
