Hi all, Probably you are aware that authorization in Mesos, as currently implemented, always requires an asynchronous step: after sending authorization request to Authorizer (or requesting a short-lived ObjectApprover from Authorizer), the caller has to wait (in one way or another) for completion of a Future.
Recently, myself and a few of my colleagues started to explore an option to implement synchronous authorization, which will allow to improve Operator event API throughput, to simplify Master code and, most importantly, to get rid of several bugs that are otherwise hard to fix cleanly. The design proposal is here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/12IVdCY668SGJTLhfEWciZfy2EreM_SJ-nzsTb33Tp44/edit?usp=sharing Please take a look and comment! Thanks, Andrei Sekretenko
