I am looking some info on XML SerDe that can handle multi-byte char data. Please advise.

@Joseph Niemiec mentioned the use of this XML SerDe: http://search.maven.org/remotecontent?filepath=com/ibm/spss/hive/serde2/xml/hivexmlserde/1.0.5.3/hiv...

I understand that you are looking for XML SerDe, but you may be open for an alternative. NiFi provides ConvertCharacterSet processor to convert the character set used to encode the content from one character set to another. Maybe that helps.

@Constantin Stanca I am exploring the NiFi option as ibm xml serde having issues processing multi byte chars.

Another option would be to pre-convert XML to JSON.
