Hi Nirav, There are several configurations which could affect the number of parallel queries running in your environment depending on you Hive version.
Thrift client is not thread safe and this causes bottleneck in the client - HS2, and HS2 - HMS communication. Hive solves this by creating its own connections on Session level. Not sure what spark.sql exactly does, but my guess it reuses the HS2 connection and with it the Session. You might be able to increase your throughput by creating multiple connections.
