Marco Gaido commented on LIVY-489:
----------------------------------

Hi [~vonatzki]. Please check the design doc attached here. Moreover, please 
check the configurations added in LivyConf. You'll see that the thriftserver 
must be enabled and configured properly and default values for the 
configurations are there.

As a suggestion, it is possible for you, I'd recommend to build Livy from 
master branch, even though the thriftserver is present also in the 0.6.0 
version. Indeed, it was the first release for it, so might find issues which 
have been fixed on current master.

Thanks.

> Many users and BI tools use JDBC connections in order to retrieve data. As 
> Livy exposes only a REST API, this is a limitation in its adoption. Hence, 
> adding a JDBC endpoint may be a very useful feature, which could also make 
> Livy a more attractive solution for end user to adopt.
> Moreover, currently, Spark exposes a JDBC interface, but this has many 
> limitations, including that all the queries are submitted to the same 
> application, therefore there is no isolation/security, which can be offered 
> by Livy, making a Livy JDBC API a better solution for companies/users who 
> want to use Spark in order to run they queries through JDBC.
> In order to make the transition from existing solutions to the new JDBC 
> server seamless, the proposal is to use the Hive thrift-server and extend it 
> as it was done by the STS.
