Description

Currently, spark thrift server can run only on yarn-client mode.

Can we add Yarn-Cluster mode support to spark thrift server?

This will help us to launch multiple spark thrift server with different spark configurations and it really help in large distributed clusters where there is requirement to run complex sqls through STS. With client mode, there is a chance to overload local host with too much driver memory.

Please let me know your thoughts.
