[jira] [Created] (HIVE-3159) Update AvroSerde to determine schema of new tables

Jakob Homan created HIVE-3159:
---------------------------------

             Summary: Update AvroSerde to determine schema of new tables
                 Key: HIVE-3159
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3159
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Serializers/Deserializers
            Reporter: Jakob Homan
            Assignee: Jakob Homan


Currently when writing tables to Avro one must manually provide an Avro schema that matches what is being delivered by Hive. It'd be better to have the serde infer this schema by converting the table's TypeInfo into an appropriate AvroSchema.
