Thanx folks, I had a very quick pass on the PDF and it looks good. Maybe some doubts around the fact where it was mentioned that if a Namenode returns a StandbyException or something on similar lines, the Router will retry, I think we have some logic in RouterRpcClient checking for such case, if it is StandByException it does try the other Namenode, but for all other Retryable Exceptions, we return them back to the client & let the client operate according to its Retry Policy, I think we should preserve that behaviour, if the intentions were to change it.
Regarding controlling the concurrency to prevent OOM at the router, maybe we should consider rejecting the client requests beyond a certain limit/backlog & return back a relevant Retriable Exception to the client, so that it can retry on another Router rather than overloading one Router when there are other available, most of the deployments I believe would be running considerable number of Routers Rest I scratched my head for possible scenario where things can go south, but I think mostly the scenarios that came into my mind are covered Nothing blocker from my side, Good Luck!!! -Ayush On Tue, 28 May 2024 at 21:52, Sangjin Lee <sj...@apache.org> wrote: > > Sounds good.
