Simon AUBERT updated HIVE-25660:
--------------------------------
Description:
Hello all,
As of today, when you want to know the file format of every table, you have, as
far I know, two solutions :
-a loop in shell
-a loop in the tool you use for HQL queries, and then parse the answer, etc..
I think this is way too complicated for such a very basic need. So a
table_file_format (or partition_file_format, I don't know) in the
information_schema would be a very precious help for monitoring.
Best regards,
Simon
