Not an answer to the question, but a question of my own; will the
nature of the content being served still be present as /some/ field?
FWIW I've found it very helpful to be able to use webrequest_source to
trivially distinguish mobile and desktop requests.

Hi all,
Soon, we will be merging the mobile web cache requests with the text cache
requests. text caches will now serve requests for mobile web[1].
This means that the webrequest_source=‘mobile’ partition in the webrequest
table in Hive will soon be empty, and all data that was previously in it
will be found in the webrequest_source=‘text’ partition.
There are only 3 datasets that currently only use the
webrequest_source=‘mobile’ partition:
- /a/log/webrequest/archive/mobile
- /a/log/webrequest/archive/5xx-mobile
- /a/log/webrequest/archive/zero
(These are paths on stat1002, but they also exist in HDFS.)
These datasets originally came from udp2log, but since early last year they
have been generated from Hadoop. With the upcoming cache merge, these jobs
will have to parse through all text requests, which will make Hadoop busier.
Do we know if these are being used? Would anyone be upset if we no longer
generated these datasets?
Thanks!
