    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3190?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13808676#comment-13808676 ] 

Jason Dere commented on HIVE-3190:
----------------------------------

How about the following aliases:

INTEGER = INT
BLOB/BINARY LARGE OBJECT = BINARY
CLOB/CHARACTER LARGE OBJECT = STRING
NUMERIC = DECIMAL
REAL = FLOAT
DOUBLE PRECISION = DOUBLE
