Description

Create Hive Metastore Event listener to push table changes to Atlas. This will help push changes done via SparkSQL which does not go through hivehook to reflect in Atlas.
Furthermore, this will eliminate the need to set hook on the client side to capture DDL. For example, using hive CLI (by typing hive at command line) would require changes in hive-site.xml on the client side to include hook property (hive.exec.post.hooks). The benefit of no change needed on client side is amplified in environment where there are hundreds of clients.
