  1. Install Spark (either download pre-built Spark, or build assembly from source).  
    • Install/build a compatible version.  Hive root pom.xml's <spark.version> defines what version of Spark it was built/tested with. 
    • Install/build a compatible distribution.  Each version of Spark has several distributions, corresponding with different versions of Hadoop.
    • Once Spark is installed, find and keep note of the <spark-assembly-*.jar> location.
    • Note that you must have a version of Spark which does not include the hive Hive jars. Meaning one which was not build built with the hive Hive profile.
  2. Start Spark cluster (both standalone and Spark on YARN are supported).
    • Keep note of the <Spark Master URL>.  This can be found in Spark master WebUI.
