Spark SQL可以使用JDBC/ODBC或命令行接口充當分布式查詢引擎。這種模式，用戶或者應用程序可以直接與Spark SQL交互，以運行SQL查詢，無需編寫任何代碼。
Spark SQL提供兩種方式來運行SQL：
- 通過運行Thrift Server
- 直接執行Spark SQL命令行
運行Thrift Server方式
1、先運行Hive metastore
nohup hive --service metastore &
2、在 hdfs-site.xml 中添加以下配置
<property>
<name>fs.hdfs.impl.disable.cache</name>
<value>true</value>
</property>
3、啟動Thrift Server
[root@node1 sbin]# pwd
/export/servers/spark-2.2.0-bin-hadoop2.6/sbin[root@node1 sbin]# ./start-thriftserver.sh --master local[*]
starting org.apache.spark.sql.hive.thriftserver.HiveThriftServer2, logging to /export/servers/spark-2.2.0-bin-hadoop2.6/logs/spark-root-org.apache.spark.sql.hive.thriftserver.HiveThriftServer2-1-node1.out
默認的端口是：10000
注意：啟動 Thrift Server 的命令兼容spark-submit的所有命令
4、使用 beeline 連接 Thrift Server
[root@node1 bin]# ./beeline
Beeline version 1.2.1.spark2 by Apache Hive
beeline> !connect jdbc:hive2://node1:10000
