Hi, Spark does not support transactions because as I understand there is a piece in the execution side that needs to send heartbeats to Hive metastore saying a transaction is still alive". That has not been implemented in Spark yet to my knowledge."
Any idea on the timelines when we are going to have support for transactions in Spark for Hive ORC tables. This will really be useful.
