[jira] [Created] (HIVE-3910) Create a new DATE datatype

Namit Jain created HIVE-3910:
--------------------------------

             Summary: Create a new DATE datatype
                 Key: HIVE-3910
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3910
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Task
            Reporter: Namit Jain


It might be useful to have a DATE datatype along with timestamp.
This can only store the day (possibly number of days from 1970-01-01,
and would thus give space savings in binary format).
