Impala

["MrAsanjar ." <af...@gmail.com>]

Hi all,
I do realize adding Impala to bigtop distribution has been discussed
multiple times. However, I believe the circumstances with Cloudera
ownership and demand for impala has changed enough to revisit this issue
once again.  would appreciate hearing your thoughts on this..

I agree, with Impala in incubation at the Foundation and *if* there is
someone willing to step up and make the contribution of all of the
necessary Bigtop bits, by all means we should review the patch and consider
inclusion.

I am curious: what are customers asking for that can't be covered
by either Hive (Java/Hadoop ecosystem) or something like HAWQ
(native/PostgreSQL ecosystem) ?

Could you please elaborate on use cases and the decision making
process?

Thanks,
Roman.

I respect your opinion Cos. Since I believe in phrase "put your money where
your mouth is", I volunteer to take a snap at it, as long as someone
willing to mentor this old man :)

Interesting, cause I don't see it anywhere else... Impala has a very narrow
class of the use cases where it really makes sense, but the complexity of
adding it into the mix oftentimes offset that benefit.

I am pretty much -0 on this. And definitely we'd need to wait until they clear
the 1st incubation release to stay away from any licensing issues it might
have.

Based on our customer set, demand for Impala has been growing, maybe it is
PowerPc specific but nevertheless it a growing  demand.

When you refer to changes in demand for Impala, what exactly you're referring
to?
