Description

We have a customer who is on Hive 0.13 and the queries seem to be failing with exception:

(Hive.java:getPartition(1619)) -
MetaException(message:org.datanucleus.exceptions.NucleusDataStoreException:

It is similar JIRA for Hive 0.13: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-8766

I suppose it's the similar issues because of both issues related to hive metastore performance, can occur when metastore is overloaded and can throw different exceptions
