   > No additional comments beyond what @sv2000 mentioned above. But a broader 
question to deal with this kind of feature is: What should be the right way to 
specify "lineage" of schema between different tables? Is setting source.db in 
GMCE a right approach (which means you need to set this in a specific 
application's GMCE if you expect the application itself doesn't carry the 
schema during runtime, for example compaction), or is there something broader 
missing in the overall picture.
   
   
   Yeah I do think there is something miss broader. Ideally, we should have a 
source of truth relationship graph between each table, so that when we see 
schema update, we can modify all tables using that schema. Leveraging config 
store is doable, but will introduce more complexity in manage the 
relationships. One better way is that we can use datahub for this case, but 
this will need more design. As for now, I would like to support source db in 
the GMCE itself to make it feasible for OSS user as well
