Pranay commented on HIVE-23717:
-------------------------------
Thanks [~ngangam] for the update. I will look at the feasibility to backport if
there isn't any existing patch that dev/user community had contributed. A
follow-up question on this jira, Would you know if this feature will be
supported in future releases as well or there is a planned deprecation?
> In jdbcUrl add config to create External + purge table by default

> External + purge tables are more backward compatible with the old managed
> tables.
> Applications can use a HS2 URL that sets the session level property for
> default table type to external-purge tables to be true.
> As part of this we need a notion of a "session level only" config
> parameter(s).
> Adding a new jdbc config: *hiveCreateAsExternalLegacy*, a hs2 config
> *hive.create.as.external.legacy*, when set to true, create external purge
> table by default.
> Adding *MANAGED* keyword. "create managed table" will create table based on
> hive.create.as.acid and hive.craete.as.insert.only values, not impacted by
> the new config.
