--------------------------------------

             Summary: Atlas is sending an ENTITY_CREATE event to the ATLAS_ENTITIES topic even if the entity exists already.
                 Key: ATLAS-342
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ATLAS-342
             Project: Atlas
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Hemanth Yamijala


* Configure Hive hook in Hive.
* Configure Atlas to talk to Kafka topics on a separately set Kafka instance.
* Run a script to create tables in Hive multiple times, for e.g.
{code}
for i in `seq 1 10`; do ./bin/hive -e "create table tbl$i (column${i}1 string, column${i}2 int)"; done
{code}
* After the script completes, check the number of entities & list the actual entities in the ATLAS_ENTITIES topic.

We can see one ENTITY_CREATE event for the Hive database for every table created in Hive. For e.g.: 
{code}
{"entity":{"jsonClass":"org.apache.atlas.typesystem.json.InstanceSerialization$_Reference","id":{"jsonClass":"org.apache.atlas.typesystem.json.InstanceSerialization$_Id","id":"e7ed4ad9-1fba-47ad-a089-1ff7e715c1ad","version":0,"typeName":"hive_db"},"typeName":"hive_db","values":{"name":"default","description":"Default Hive database","ownerType":{"value":"ROLE","ordinal":2},"qualifiedName":"primary.default","locationUri":"hdfs://localhost:9000/user/hive/warehouse","ownerName":"public","clusterName":"primary"},"traitNames":[],"traits":{}},"operationType":"ENTITY_CREATE","traits":[]}
{"entity":{"jsonClass":"org.apache.atlas.typesystem.json.InstanceSerialization$_Reference","id":{"jsonClass":"org.apache.atlas.typesystem.json.InstanceSerialization$_Id","id":"e7ed4ad9-1fba-47ad-a089-1ff7e715c1ad","version":0,"typeName":"hive_db"},"typeName":"hive_db","values":{"name":"default","description":"Default Hive database","ownerType":{"value":"ROLE","ordinal":2},"qualifiedName":"primary.default","locationUri":"hdfs://localhost:9000/user/hive/warehouse","ownerName":"public","clusterName":"primary"},"traitNames":[],"traits":{}},"operationType":"ENTITY_CREATE","traits":[]}
{code}

The expectation is that we don't have these extraneous events as there is no change to the entity.
