TennyZhuang opened a new issue, #437:
URL: https://github.com/apache/iceberg-rust/issues/437
Background: #301
The token fetched from the token server may have a TTL, see
`TokenResponse::expires_in`. In most cases, it's about several hours. Our
catalog client is a long-lived object, which means that we should handle the
token expiration event.
There are two ways:
1. Spawn a background task, and setup a ticker with a specified time
interval, e.g. `expires_in * 0.9` seconds, and refetch the token when triggered.
* Pros: Easy to implement
* Cons: Must trust the local timer skew
* Cons: Must introduce a timer, which means depending on a specified async
runtime
2. Call every methods with a retry wrapper. When meeting an unauthorized
error, refetch the token and retry the method.
* Pros: Consistent with iceberg-python
* Pros: Does not rely on local clock and specific runtime
* Cons: When expired, thousands of concurrent requests may fail, and then
all of them will trigger a token refetch, which is not ideal.
* This can be workaround by some concurrency control, to force only one
request will refetch the token and others must wait for the result, but it
introduced complexity.
