To minimize the impact on the existing users, should we keep the feature (in
the same disabled state) until an alternative is added/supported?

I’d like to remove the feature for persistent HostDB storage for ATS v10.0. In
ATS v9 we made this disabled by default, and removing this feature completely
would make it easier in the future to improve and replace HostDB itself with
better containers. And, persistent DNS caching is better done with a local
caching resolver.
This would eliminate the following records settings:
proxy.config.cache.hostdb.sync_frequency
proxy.config.hostdb.host_file.path
proxy.config.hostdb.host_file.interval
I’ve prepared a PR with these changes:
https://github.com/apache/trafficserver/pull/10368
Let us know if you have concerns about eliminating this feature. Lazy consensus.
