Hi there --

I've been doing some analysis using the raw pageviews table in Hive, in order to try to understand the effect that adding a sitemap to it.wikipedia.org had on traffic[1].  As part of this analysis, I created three temporary tables.  But, of course, those tables only exist within the context of my own session, which is sub-optimal since I'm not the only one trying to understand this.

What's the best way to go about persisting these tables?  I can SELECT INTO to move the data in to a non-temp table, but don't want to do so willy-nilly.  

(They'll probably need to stick around for about 2 weeks, I would guess, and each of the three tables in question is about 5 million rows with three columns each (a string, and two int))

Thanks!
