Thanks for responding Peter. It indeed seems like a one session per client (we can see in every log record - source:10.250.70.14 ). I don't create session with hive thrift server. Spark basically require this property "hive.metastore.uris" in sparkconfig which we set to "thrift://hivebox:9083" So we don't have Direct control over how many sessions (connections) we can create. In our current usce case, we run spark in local mode so basically only one client IP. If we run spark in cluster mode we can potentially have multiple cluster nodes submitting queries to hive and hence it might scale. but latter is workaround we don't want to run spark in cluster mode in this particular case. I think Spark and Hive should scale by using multiple threads even when there's only one client machine and one server is involved. Do you know any other spark config that can help with this?
Do you think if I use hive jdbc instead of spark to submit these queries in parallel they will executed by hive using multiple threads?
