             Summary: Increase scalability of metadata handling
                 Key: IMPALA-7034
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-7034
             Project: IMPALA
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: Impala 2.13.0
            Reporter: Vincent Tran


Currently the practical limit for catalog topic update is in the neighborhood 
of 4GB - the fundamental limit of max thrift message size. This is an 
architectural limitation and not a resource limitation

Larger enterprise clusters with high file counts can easily surpass this with 
normal usage.
The high level ask here is for a more scalable implementation for metadata 
handling. The amount metadata that a cluster can handle should be proportional 
to the amount of hardware resource that a user is willing to allocate to it.
