The registered table is stored within the spark context itself. To have the table available for the thrift server to get access to, you can save the sc table into the Hive context so that way the Thrift server process can see the table. If you are using derby as your metastore, then the thrift server should be accessing this as you would want to utilize the same hive configuration (i.e. hive-site.xml). You may want to migrate your metastore to MySQL or Postgres as it will be handle concurrency better than derby.

When a schemaRDD is registered as table where does the metadata of this table get stored. Can it be stored in the configured hive meta-store or? Also if the thrift Server is not configured to use the HIVE metastore its using its own default (probably derby) metastore.So would the table metainfo be stored in this meta-store.
