Hi, Remember that acidity and transactional support was added to Hive 0.14 onward because of advent of ORC tables.
Now Spark does not support transactions because quote "there is a piece in the execution side that needs to send heartbeats to Hive metastore saying a transaction is still alive". That has not been implemented in Spark yet to my knowledge.
