Automatically Convert VARCHAR to STRING

    XMLWordPrintableJSON

    Details

      Description

      Using STRING datatypes is much faster than VARCHAR. Add a configuration to HiveServer2 (HS2) that automatically converts VARCHAR DDL table definitions to STRING. In this way, if a BI tool is creating VARCHAR column in tables, and the behavior cannot be changed, HS2 will change them automatically.
