jackjlli opened a new issue #4665: Cached data accessor may be inconsistent 
even in the same controller
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-pinot/issues/4665
 
 
   In https://github.com/apache/incubator-pinot/pull/3633, we leveraged 
`ZkCacheBaseDataAccessor` to cache instance configs in order to reduce the zk 
access. 
   While it has its drawback that it's only used to read instance config; 
writing/updating instance config is done in Helix code and it isn't controlled 
by Pinot. Thus, it's possible that the cached instance configs may be stale. 
   Thus, the current workaround is only use cached accessor for segment 
operations. For tenant/table level operations, we use direct data accessor. 
It's because segment operations are more frequent than the ones of tenant/table.
   In the future, the following actions can be done for this issue:
   * Contact Helix team to make `updateCache` method public in cached data 
accessor.
   * Maintain a zkClient in PinotHelixResourceManager and override the methods 
like addInstance.
   * Implement our own guava cache to cache instance configs.
