OK, feel free to replace 'friends' with 'not friends' in that
sentence. That does not change the argument.
If you thing hive has "friends" named "DB2, Oracle, teradata, vertica,
impala" you are wrong.
Besides the fact that some of them originally took the position that map

I'm +1 for calling it Hive SQL. No one knows what HQL is when they see the

to what SQL
"I see that the hive community intends to make hive SQL compliant and is on
that path." . I was not under the general impression that we are on that
path.
Someone once told me that supporting full SQL will result in roughly 4
times the parser and planner code. For me that is not a huge win.

I see that the hive community intends to make hive SQL compliant and
is on that path. Just like other databases, it has some extensions to
