> Hive should be able to configure all intermediate MR jobs to write to HDFS,
> but the final MR job to write to S3.
> This will be useful for implementing parallel renames on S3. The idea is that
> for a multi-job query, all intermediate MR jobs write to HDFS, and then the
> final job writes to S3. Writing to HDFS should be faster than writing to S3,
> so it makes more sense to write intermediate data to HDFS.
> The advantage is that any copying of data that needs to be done from the
> scratch directory to the final table directory can be done server-side,
> within the blobstore. The MoveTask simply renames data from the scratch
> directory to the final table location, which should translate to a
> server-side COPY request. This way HiveServer2 doesn't have to actually copy
> any data, it just tells the blobstore to do all the work.
