Hi there, I am new to hive. My goal is to run the Standalone Metastore in the hope to integrate it with Spark/Iceberg without Hadoop/Hive. I downloaded the release from here <http://us.mirrors.quenda.co/apache/hive/hive-standalone-metastore-3.0.0/>(version 3.0.0) and successfully initialized a MySQL database and started the standalone-megastore process (org.apache.hadoop.hive.metastore.HiveMetaStore).
Given how little documentation and examples I have found on the internet about this, I was wondering ion this Standalone Metastore is production tested/ready and what experience people who run it in production have with it in terms of reliability and scalability. thanks -- Abdoulaye Diallo
