Navis commented on HIVE-3531: ----------------------------- @Edward: As stated in description, we delegates execution of all the queries to a single hive server. In this case, external lock manager like a zookeeper could be used but it's not required thing. But it does not mean locking itself is not needed. Multiple queries could be executed concurrently and still need a appropriate locking system. I didn't think of locking mechanism of hive deeply yet. It's just in-memory version of zookeeper lock manager. The part "locking does not working well" in your comment should be an another issue. > Simple lock manager for dedicated hive server > --------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-3531 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3531 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Server Infrastructure > Reporter: Navis > Assignee: Navis > Priority: Trivial > Attachments: HIVE-3531.D5871.1.patch > > > In many cases, we uses hive server as a sole proxy for executing all the > queries. For that, current default lock manager based on zookeeper seemed a > little heavy. Simple in-memory lock manager could be enough. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
