Does Presto Support Hive SerDe?

Question

I installed Presto and it worked pretty well with CDH4. The problem is that I have a Hive table was defined by with ROW FORMAT SERDE. And Presto seems cannot use it. The error message is as following:

Query 20131119_061350_00003_bpk58 failed: MetaException(message:org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.SerDeException SerDe myquery.hive.serde.JSONSerDe does not exist)

So, is SerDe supported in Presto?

Many thanks.

Answer 1

Add the SerDe to the plugin/hive-cdh4 directory inside the installation directory.

Answer 2

you need to add json-serde-1.1.7-jar-with-dependencies.jar to your classpath.
