https://community.cloudera.com/t5/Support-Questions/Reading-a-Hive-table-while-doing-insert-overwrite-on-a/m-p/220363#M182248 <P>I am not running the select query on the whole table. I am running select query with where clause filtering a single partition which is not been updated. It still waits for the insert to be finished even if the partition its inserting is not an existing one. </P> Tue, 17 Oct 2017 00:26:41 GMT viswanath_kammu 2017-10-17T00:26:41Z
