Description
Since HIVE-19899, Hive supports JSON format tables officially. It'd be good to add the same functionality for Impala.
Subtasks can be:
- Support loading metadata of JSON format tables. Make statements that don't need to read data files work first, e.g. DESCRIBE, SHOW CRETATE TABLE, SHOW PARTITIONS, etc.
- Support creating JSON format tables by "STORED AS JSONFILE" clause.
- Support reading JSON format tables. All SELECT queires should work.
- Support writing to JSON format tables.
