             Summary: *DropPartitionEvent should handle partition-sets.
                 Key: HIVE-9674
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-9674
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Metastore
    Affects Versions: 0.14.0
            Reporter: Mithun Radhakrishnan
            Assignee: Mithun Radhakrishnan


Dropping a set of N partitions from a table currently results in N DropPartitionEvents (and N PreDropPartitionEvents) being fired serially. This is wasteful, especially so for large N. It also makes it impossible to even try to run authorization-checks on all partitions in a batch.

Taking the cue from HIVE-9603, we should compose an {{Iterable<Partition>}} in the event, and expose them via an {{Iterator}}.
