Hive3: JSON and XML SerDe?

[#1]

@Shu @Geoffrey Shelton Okot @Matt Burgess

Hi,

We have JSON and XML files in HDFS and need both SerDe(s), so we can use Hive External Tables to load into Hive Managed Partitioned Tables via NiFi.

Environment:

• HDP 3.0 (hive3)
• HDF 3.2
• Tableau

Looking forward.

This should be what you are looking for:

ROW FORMAT SERDE 'org.apache.hive.hcatalog.data.JsonSerDe'

These SerDe(s) are not working with Hive3 in HDP3.0

Did you tested these with Hive3 or previous versions?
