Dimitris Tsirogiannis 5bb9959fa4 IMPALA-4584: Make alter table operations on Kudu tables synchronous
This commit changes the behavior of alter table operations on Kudu
tables from asynchronous to synchronous. With this change, alter table
operations return when either the operations complete successfully or
a timeout is reached.

Welcome to Impala

Lightning-fast, distributed SQL queries for petabytes of data stored in Apache Hadoop clusters.

Impala is a modern, massively-distributed, massively-parallel, C++ query engine that lets you analyze, transform and combine data from a variety of data sources:

  • Best of breed performance and scalability.
  • Support for data stored in HDFS, Apache HBase and Amazon S3.
  • Wide analytic SQL support, including window functions and subqueries.
  • On-the-fly code generation using LLVM to generate CPU-efficient code tailored specifically to each individual query.
  • Support for the most commonly-used Hadoop file formats, including the Apache Parquet (incubating) project.
  • Apache-licensed, 100% open source.
