Hi community, I have a long-running IMetaStoreClient that would queries metadata upon user requests. But the connection would be lost sometimes because of server restarts or network unstablity, which leads to SocketException when accessing Metastore.
I noticed there’s a #reconnect method, which closes the current thrift connection and opens a new one. Is that designed for this scenario? Or is there some best practice to handle the connectivity issue? In addition, I’m using Hive 1.1.0-CDH5.6.0 and Apache Hive 2.3.0 (in migrating process). Thanks a lot! Best, Paul Lam
