Dimitris Tsirogiannis da34ce9780 IMPALA-4527: Columns in Kudu tables created from Impala default to "NULL"
This commit reverts the behavior introduced by IMPALA-3719 which used
the Kudu default behavior for column nullability if none was specified
in the CREATE TABLE statement. With this commit, non-key columns of Kudu
tables that are created from Impala are by default nullable unless
specified otherwise.

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.
