> Lot of users are struggling and rewriting a lot of boiler plate over thrift to get pure asynchronous capability. 
> The idea is to expose operation handle, so that clients can persist it and later can latch on to the same execution.
> *Problem statement*
> Hive JDBC currently exposes 2 methods related to asynchronous execution
> *executeAsync()* - to trigger a query execution and return immediately.
> *waitForOperationToComplete()* - which waits till the current execution is complete *blocking the user thread*.
> This has one problem
> If the client process goes down, there is no way to resume queries although hive server is completely asynchronous.
> *Proposal*
> If operation handle could be exposed, we can latch on to an active execution of a query.
> *Code changes*
> Operation handle is exposed. So client can keep a copy.
> latchSync() and latchAsync() methods take an operation handle and try to latch on to the current execution in hive server if present
