Vimal Sharma commented on ATLAS-602: ------------------------------------ After some discussion, we have decided to go with the fix where AtlasHook.notifyEntities() returns after some number of retries. Notification failure occurs when Kafka is down which is an infrastructure issue and doesn't happen frequently. Persisting the failed messages temporarily on Atlas server might affect the Hook behaviour by imposing additional overhead Thanks [~suma.shivaprasad] [~shwethags] [~yhemanth] for the inputs. > Hooks stuck in case of failure > ------------------------------ > > Key: ATLAS-602 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ATLAS-602 > Project: Atlas > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Shwetha G S > Assignee: Vimal Sharma > Priority: Critical > Fix For: 0.7-incubating > > > in the case of whoever uses AtlasHook.notifyEntities(), the retry loop > doesn't ever exit, which is a problem as well.
