             Summary: Add support in ParquetHiveSerde to create table schema from a parquet file
                 Key: HIVE-8950
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-8950
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Ashish Kumar Singh
            Assignee: Ashish Kumar Singh


Parquet-76 and Parquet-47 ask for creating parquet backed tables without having to specify the column names and types. As, parquet files store schema in their footer, it is possible to generate hive schema from parquet file's metadata. This will improve the usability of parquet backed tables.
