It lets you execute SQL queries against these big-data engines and fetch results, with optional asynchronous execution for long-running queries on Hive. The package has no runtime dependencies by default; you install extras for the specific engine you need (hive, presto, or trino), each bringing its own transport and protocol dependencies.\n\nThe library is minimal in scope\u2014it handles connection, query execution, and result fetching without attempting to abstract away engine-specific features. It supports session configuration (query timeouts, resource limits), authentication (LDAP, basic auth over HTTPS), and both modern and legacy patterns. The project is maintained but explicitly marked unsupported in its description, and installation friction is high due to the need to select and install the correct extras for your target engine.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need to query Hive, Presto, or Trino from Python and are willing to manage the extra selection and engine-specific dependencies. The package is actively maintained, permissively licensed, and widely downloaded, but install friction is high and the project's own description marks it unsupported\u2014clarify your engine's support status before committing.
