Venkatesh Seetharam created FALCON-283:
------------------------------------------
Summary: Catalog Service implementation needs to be part an entity
definition
Key: FALCON-283
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FALCON-283
Project: Falcon
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 0.4
Reporter: Venkatesh Seetharam
Catalog Service Factory uses startup properties to find the implementation and
this is ok as long as its used with in falcon server. But, its being used in
workflow actions such as retention, late data handler, etc. The overridden
startup properties is not available to actions and hence always picks up the
default. This is fine for now since there is only one implementation.
There are 2 options:
* make it part of cluster definition - ship cluster definition to actions is bad
* make it part of the table uri similar to what jdbc does and this mapping is
global
Thoughts?
