Description

We want to submit a patch to Hive which allows user to write files directly to S3.

This patch allow user to specify an S3 location as the table output location and hence eliminates the need of copying data from HDFS to S3.
Users can run Hive queries directly over the data stored in S3.
This patch helps integrate hive with S3 better and quicker.
