The best approach would be to use a demonized containers such as Hive LLAP
+ Tez session pool or Spark on Hive.

I’m not that familiar with Spark on Hive so I can’t comment on it but Hive
on LLAP has worked really well for me when coupled with Tez session pool.
You’ll have to specify how many Tez AMs initialized per LLAP pool when
HiveServer2 started, and those AMs will be used for all the queries in that
pool.

The actual Tez containers are “replaced” by LLAP daemons that are always
running so there’s no start up cost as well. The underline execution engine
is still Tez but it is executed in a special LLAP mode and this could
potentially give you sub second response time.

In my experience, when Hive LLAP is used, IO cache is enabled and the file
format is ORC, I can get under 1s for small queries when the cage is hit
(equivalent to in-memory database at at time). Parquet is slower since the
LLAP mode doesn’t support efficient IO caching and vectorized execution.
