Hi Zoltán, Thank you for your response. Let me provide additional context about our specific use case.
We're running Spark on Kubernetes where we need Hive Metastore Standalone as a sidecar container in our Spark driver pod. This setup enables secure communication between Spark and our MySQL metastore database. We specifically require the "Hive metastore thrift service through thrift:// protocol" integration, as the "Hive metastore Database through JDBC" approach would expose sensitive credentials. Pod startup time is critical in our environment, and we've invested significant effort in optimizing our sidecar image size to under 350MB. The default Hive images at ~1GB are too large for our requirements. For this reason, we're specifically looking to build a minimal Hive Metastore Standalone distribution, similar to what was available in Hive 3.0.0 (hive-standalone-metastore-3.1.3-bin.tar.gz). Could you please advise on how to build such a minimal distribution for Hive 4.x?
