Github user danielfx90 commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/19238 @gatorsmile if Hive lies on the same infrastructure as the application, then the metastore should definitely solve the issue, but a connection over JDBC is needed when data comes from an external source which **only** exposes such a connection through its Hive server. We encountered this and ended up adding the HiveDialect to solve it.
