manojpec opened a new pull request #4259:
URL: https://github.com/apache/hudi/pull/4259


   ## What is the purpose of the pull request
   
   Today Metadata table updates are done inline/synchronous with the data table 
updates. Metadata data table updates can also sometime trigger table services 
like compaction which are also done inline w.r.t the ongoing commit. So, 
updates in the metadata table are always serial. However, there can be async 
table services like clustering which are running in parallel with single or 
multiple writers and can update the metadata table in parallel with the writer 
commits. 
   
   In the multi writer case, since we anyway have the lock provider configured 
metadata table updates are guarded for race. But, the lock providers are not 
must today for single writer + async table service deployments, leading to race 
in metadata table updates. Async table service like clustering can race with 
the metadata table compaction, and can update the wrong delta log file than the 
right next delta file from the compaction.
   
   For the single writer + async table operations triggered from the same 
process, a local JVM based lock provider implementation is needed.
   
   ## Brief change log
   
    - Adding Local JVM process based lock provider implementation
   
    - Enabling the metadata table by default
   
    - This local lock provider can be used by a single writer process with async
      table operations to guard the metadata tabl against concurrent updates.
