Is the cli in fact a full replacement for shark?
The description says "The Spark SQL CLI is a convenient tool to run the
Hive metastore service in local mode ...". The way I've used Shark in
the past, however, is to run the shark shell on a client machine and
connect it to a Hive metastore on a different machine. (The Spark
master node.) So in this use case, running the Hive metastore in local
mode on the client machine would not meet this goal.
Is it possible for the Spark SQL Cli to connect to an external Hive
metatore rather than running one internally?
Thanks,
DR

Is there a shell available for Spark SQL, similar to the way the Shark or
Hive shells work?
From my reading up on Spark SQL, it seems like one can execute SQL queries
in the Spark shell, but only from within code in a programming language
such as Scala. There does not seem to be any way to directly issue SQL (or
HQL) queries from the shell, send files of queries to the shell (i.e.,
using the "-f" flag), etc.
Does this functionality exist somewhere and I'm just missing it?
Thanks,
DR
