Thanks everyone for the reply. I think its HIVE-1225 is really what I want. At this point I can implement PostExecute as I need to call the hook only at the end of query and not at the end of each job or task of query. If I register it through hive-site.xml then I guess it will get executed for each query which is where the complication starts. I want to execute this hook only for insert queries and not for all the queries. One workaround is to get the Cmd string from session and then parse it to find out if it actually is an insert query and only if it is then execute the remainder of code. But that looks hacky, I look forward to HIVE-1225.
