This {{ActorRef}} is used from within {{Executions}} to interact with > the {{TaskManager}}. This is not a nice abstraction since it does not hide > implementation details. > Since we need to add a leader session ID to messages sent by the > {{Executions}} in order to support high availability, we would need to make > the leader session ID available to the {{Execution}}. A better solution seems > to be to replace the direct {{ActorRef}} interaction with an instance gateway > abstraction which encapsulates the communication logic. Having such an > abstraction, it will be easy to decorate messages transparently with a leader > session ID. Therefore, I propose to refactor the current {{Instance}} > communication and to introduce an {{InstanceGateway}} abstraction. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
