bharath v created IMPALA-8797: --------------------------------- Summary: Blacklist "sys" and "information_schema" databases from Hive Key: IMPALA-8797 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-8797 Project: IMPALA Issue Type: Improvement Components: Catalog, Frontend Affects Versions: Impala 3.2.0 Reporter: bharath v Assignee: Jiawei Wang
HMS exposes these two databases "sys" and "information_schema" which contain tables that expose the underlying meta information in a queryable format. However, Impala cannot read them because they come with custom serde that Impala doesn't support. >From a usability point of view, we should black list those databases from >loading, so that users don't see them when querying the database list. I think >that is reasonable because they can't query them anyway. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.14#76016)
