> Hive SQL, Spark SQL, Scala Spark, PySpark and Presto are widely used as different execution engines

This makes me think they're doing something very very wrong. AirBNB does not have data on the scale that would require these tools. They have 5.6 million listings, 150 million users, and 1 billion total person-stays. These numbers can easily be processed with Postgres or SQLite on single machines. Spark and Hive are for companies like Google and Facebook.
