Xuefu Zhang updated HIVE-9258: ------------------------------ Description: Currently for Hive on Spark, query plan includes the number of reducers, which is determined partly by the Spark cluster. Thus, explain query will need to launch a Spark application (Spark remote context), which should be shared with regular queries so that we don't launch additional Spark remote context. (was: Currently for Hive on Spark, query plan includes the number of reducers, which is determined partly by the Spark cluster. Thus, explain query will need to launch a Spark application (Spark remote context), which is costly. To make things worse, the application is discarded right way. Ideally, we shouldn't launch a Spark application even for an explain query.) > Explain query should share the same Spark application with regular queries > [Spark Branch] > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-9258 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-9258 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: Spark > Reporter: Xuefu Zhang > Assignee: Jimmy Xiang > > Currently for Hive on Spark, query plan includes the number of reducers, > which is determined partly by the Spark cluster.
