Hi I am trying to develop a custom application using the Thrift Hive client interface to access the Hive and read and write into the hive tables. ODBC and JDBC are not option because of the inherent limitations with those interfaces (i.e unable to generate the HiveQL etc).
While using the Thrift Hive interface, the first challenge that I ran into is with the authentication. I could able to connect to hive only when I set the authentication of the hiveserver2 as NOSASL. My application should be able to provide Kerberos authentication and all other authentications supported by Hive. I had tried to look for some samples around implementing authentication in the Thrift Hive client, but I could not find much details on that. Can someone help me understand the options available for implementing authentication while using the Thrift Hive client interfaces ? -- Srinivas (*-*) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ You have to grow from the inside out.
