Suma Shivaprasad commented on ATLAS-606:
----------------------------------------

>From investigations of the code , 

The existing Hive client that we use  is better than HiveMetaStoreClient since 
it is using HSMC internally with  thread safety, caching the HMSC in a 
THreadLocal instance and also handles retries when calls fail. 



> Change from Hive thrift interface to Hive MetastoreClient

> The reason to switch would be 
> a. Failovers from metastore client are not handled in Hive client
> b. Hive thrift calls are apparently unsecure
