Edward Capriolo commented on HIVE-7025: --------------------------------------- We do something similar however we also have the ability to delete partitions over a certain age. Hive already has a property inside every table called "retention" that we could consider using. This code is a good first step but I have one question. Isn't this code rather racey? If we have multiple CLIs running threads they could all be simultaneously deleting tables, and a CLI with a system with a misconfiguration clock could potentially delete all the tables. I think if we do this it should be a stand alone piece. > TTL on hive tables > ------------------ > > Key: HIVE-7025 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7025 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Query Processor > Reporter: Navis > Assignee: Navis > Priority: Minor > Attachments: HIVE-7025.1.patch.txt > > > Add self destruction properties for temporary tables. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
