----------------------------
Assignee: Wenchen Fan
> Converge the insert path of Hive tables with data source tables
> ---------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-18243
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-18243
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: SQL
> Reporter: Reynold Xin
> Assignee: Wenchen Fan
> Fix For: 2.2.0
>
>
> Inserting data into Hive tables has its own implementation that is distinct
> from data sources: InsertIntoHiveTable, SparkHiveWriterContainer and
> SparkHiveDynamicPartitionWriterContainer.
> I think it should be possible to unify these with data source implementations
> InsertIntoHadoopFsRelationCommand. We can start by implementing an
> OutputWriterFactory/OutputWriter that uses Hive's serdes to write data.
> Note that one other major difference is that data source tables write
> directly to the final destination without using some staging directory, and
> then Spark itself adds the partitions/tables to the catalog. Hive tables
> actually write to some staging directory, and then call Hive metastore's
> loadPartition/loadTable function to load those data in.
