Vihang Karajgaonkar commented on IMPALA-9375: --------------------------------------------- Thanks [~robbiezhang] for your comment. Yeah that metastore client pool is okay to be there since it is only instantiated on coordinators. Coordinators need a HMS client because they need to open a transaction in case transaction tables are being inserted into. See https://github.com/apache/impala/blob/6b16df9e9a4696b46b6f9c7fe2fc0aaded285623/fe/src/main/java/org/apache/impala/service/JniFrontend.java#L144 > Remove DirectMetaProvider usage from CatalogMetaProvider > -------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: IMPALA-9375 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-9375 > Project: IMPALA > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Catalog > Affects Versions: Impala 3.4.0 > Reporter: Vihang Karajgaonkar > Assignee: Vihang Karajgaonkar > Priority: Critical > > I see that CatalogMetaProvider uses {{DirectMetaProvider}} here > https://github.com/apache/impala/blob/master/fe/src/main/java/org/apache/impala/catalog/local/CatalogdMetaProvider.java#L239 > There are only a couple of places where it is used within > CatalogMetaProvider.
