> Currently, the External Shuffle Service stores application metadata in 
> LevelDB. This is necessary to enable the shuffle server to resume serving 
> shuffle data for an application whose executors registered before the 
> NodeManager restarts. However, the metadata includes the application secret, 
> which is stored in LevelDB without encryption. This is a potential security 
> risk, particularly for applications with high security requirements. While 
> filesystem access control lists (ACLs) can help protect keys and 
> certificates, they may not be sufficient for some use cases. In response, we 
> have decided not to store metadata for these high-security applications in 
> LevelDB. As a result, these applications may experience more failures in the 
> event of a node restart, but we believe this trade-off is acceptable given 
> the increased security risk.
