Hari, The way things are progressing... it appears that HCatalog would become part of Hive and may not have an independent existence. The final decision is not yet made but thats the direction it seems to be heading. So what I am now referring to as a "HCatalog sink" could be just considered as the "Hive/HCatalog sink" or just "Hive" sink.
