             Summary: Transition the static Metastore (HMS) into a dynamic 
metadata repository
                 Key: HIVE-29680
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-29680
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Task
            Reporter: Zhihua Deng


By default, HMS acts like a static phone book—it only knows what you manually 
type into it, the implementations rely on simple, explicit Thrift API calls 
(e.g., get_table, get_partitions_by_filter). While with the rapid emergence of 
AI, it cannot support AI workloads. AI agents require real-time schema 
discovery, precise semantic definitions, etc.

The goal is to evolve the HMS from a static metadata repository into a dynamic, 
context-aware metadata serving engine, significantly enhancing client 
efficiency and enabling smarter data management and discovery operations.
