The current scenario resembles a three tier architecture but without the security of second tier. In a typical three-tier you have users connecting to the application server (read Hive server2) are independently authenticated and if OK, the second tier creates new ,NET type or JDBC threads to connect to database much like multi-threading. The problem I believe is that Hive server 2 does not have that concept of handling the individual loggings yet. Hive server 2 should be able to handle LDAP logins as well. It is a useful layer to have.
