> There are 2 choices: RPC using thrift and HTTP using webhcat. HTTP of course is preferable but there are a few issues with it:
> * Uses cli to talk to the server implying needing Hcat install and client. This is a PITA for integration-tests.
> * Also, there is no java wrapper around the RESTful APIs which returns Map and such. Need to roll our own. 
> * Runs as a separate daemon (which should eventually fold into metastore or HiveServer2). However this is short-term and a minor annoyance.
> Thoughts?
