[jira] Commented: (PIG-1331) Owl Hadoop Table Management Service

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-1331?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12852205#action_12852205 ] 

Ajay Kidave commented on PIG-1331:
----------------------------------

If ant still uses the older ivy version, this might be because the older version of ivy jar file is present in $ANT_HOME/lib or ~/.ant/lib. Removing the older version jar from these locations should cause ivy 2.1 to be used.

> This JIRA is a proposal to create a Hadoop table management service: Owl. Today, MapReduce and Pig applications interacts directly with HDFS directories and files and must deal with low level data management issues such as storage format, serialization/compression schemes, data layout, and efficient data accesses, etc, often with different solutions. Owl aims to provide a standard way to addresses this issue and abstracts away the complexities of reading/writing huge amount of data from/to HDFS.
> Owl has a data access API that is modeled after the traditional Hadoop !InputFormt and a management API to manipulate Owl objects.  This JIRA is related to Pig-823 (Hadoop Metadata Service) as Owl has an internal metadata store.  Owl integrates with different storage module like Zebra with a pluggable architecture.
>  Initially, the proposal is to submit Owl as a Pig contrib project.  Over time, it makes sense to move it to a Hadoop subproject.
