Zhihua Deng created HIVE-28662: ---------------------------------- Summary: Enable the dynamic leader election for HMS Key: HIVE-28662 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-28662 Project: Hive Issue Type: Improvement Security Level: Public (Viewable by anyone) Reporter: Zhihua Deng Assignee: Zhihua Deng
In the Hive ACID world, we must enable the metastore.compactor.initiator.on and metastore.compactor.cleaner.on on HMS to trigger the table compaction automatically. In a real warehouse, we might have multiple HMS instances behind, or even deploy for different purposes, running the tasks like these on all these instances could be a waste of resources, make the HMS scale out not so easily. The HIVE-26509 introduces the dynamic leader election. Compared to the old one, the administrator doesn't need to know the deployment beforehand, and a shared properties can be used across all the HMS instances, simple yet effective. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
