Ran Postar commented on HIVE-1643:
----------------------------------

I understand that pushing down the expression to hbase is complicated especially when working with multiple tables. But is it possible to add a hinting mechanism?
We can added to each "from table" a hint for startRow and stopRow for the scan, and when HiveHBaseTableInputFormat scan the table it will added the startRow & stopRow. And for the first Part we will leave the user the possibility to optimize specific table scan.

> HIVE-1226 added support for WHERE rowkey=3.  We would like to support WHERE rowkey BETWEEN 10 and 20, as well as predicates on non-rowkeys (plus conjunctions etc).  Non-rowkey conditions can't be used to filter out entire ranges, but they can be used to push the per-row filter processing as far down as possible.
