Impala SQL styles
The current Impala documentation uses inconsistent styles to denote SQL
keywords, function names, commands, etc.
In Hive documentation, lower case function names are used, but in all other
database documentation I checked, Oracle, MySQL, Google, Snowflake,
uppercase function names are used.
Going forward, I would like to be a little more disciplined as:
- SQL keywords in upper case
- SQL functions and operators in upper case
- Variables and user inputs in lower case
Until I have a bandwidth to make a sweep changes to docs, there will be
inconsistencies, but I will try to fix them whenever possible.
Please speak up if you see any issue with the above styles.
Thanks!
