Is query only executed on driver?

Drivers and Connectors JDBC Driver
#1

I keep hitting the same error when I try to read data back from TG but it seems like if it is read from executors then it would be able to store the data in a distributed way. I believe that the query is only being executed on the driver which would make sense why it cannot handle a huge dataset. If this is the case, what is the point of executing a read using the jdbc driver except to just get an automatic conversion from map to a data frame. Please advise.

Could you provide a little more background?

Which JBDC driver are you using?

Do you know roughly at what data size you are hitting this limit?
There is a 2GB limit for the result set size, which is imposed by the database, not by the JDBC driver.

JDBC Driver (TG): 1.3.12
I am trying to retrieve a map result size of no more than 500MB based only on the expected size of the keys and values. It seems like the error is on the HTTP response size. I don’t know how to increase this in the JDBC Driver.
