I have server A and Server B. Server B is a hadoop cluster which has hive database and etc..
Server A has python 2.7. I would like to write a hive query using python on Server A to pull data from Server B. Server A and B has connectivity and no issues with network etc..

I have installed all necessary python packages on Server A. I wrote a python code using hive_utils package but it seems this code doesn't throw error or pull data, just hangs there. Can you please take a look at it and let me know what is the issue with code or suggest if you have better way or package could be used to pull data with example code. Thank you for your help.

here is the code I wrote.
CODE: SELECT ALL
#!/usr/bin/env python
import hive_utils

query = """
    SELECT *
    FROM test
"""
hive_client = hive_utils.HiveClient(
    server='10.25.36.75',
    port=10000,
    db='camp'
)
a = hive_client.execute(query)
a = list(a)
