I'll have to get back to you on the code bits, but I'm pretty sure we're doing simple sync batching. We're not in production yet, but after some months of development I haven't seen any failures, even when pushing load doing multiple years' backfill. I think the real question is why are you losing tablet servers? The only instability we ever had with Kudu was when it had that weird ntp sync issue that was fixed I think for 1.6. What version are you running?
Anyway I would think that infinite loop should be catchable somewhere. Our pipeline is set to fail/retry with Flink snapshots. I imagine there is similar with Spark. Sorry I cant be of more help!

In my case, I am able to upsert ~25000 events/sec into Kudu. But, I am facing the problem when any of the Kudu Tablet or master server is down. I am not able to get a hold of the exception from client. The client is going into an infinite loop trying to connect to Kudu. Meanwhile, I am loosing my records. I tried handling the errors through getPendingErrors() but still it is helpless. I am using AsyncKuduClient to establish the connection and retrieving the syncClient from the Async to open the session and table. Any help?

It's especially nice if you require an Upsert semantic.

I am stuck at a point and couldn't find a solution. Thanks, Ravi
