Re: Adding OW_ACTION_VERSION

[Christophe Jelger]

Hi Tyson,

Yes it's exactly the use case you mention: the keys and values are stored 
externally, and yes the cache might be overwritten by concurrent action 
invocations.

Christophe

    Hi  -
    Just to clarify, your examples mention "cache keys" - can you confirm these 
keys are stored external to the action code/container? I guess the behavior you 
are after is that a cache is populated the first time a particular version of 
the action is invoked, and the action is responsible for populating the cache? 
    This will require it to be ok that the cache is overwritten by multiple 
concurrent action invocations - is that ok? Otherwise some external 
coordination will be required.
    
    Thanks
    Tyson

        Hello,
        
        I just joined the dev list after opened 
https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fapache%2Fopenwhisk%2Fpull%2F4761&amp;data=02%7C01%7Ctnorris%40adobe.com%7Cf6bbce97138840d6d3d808d777d713e2%7Cfa7b1b5a7b34438794aed2c178decee1%7C0%7C1%7C637109637950585977&amp;sdata=NpAWRBdQiBdA%2BUc6YED%2BppFJnVQT31OU4YXF6Dg%2FRn0%3D&amp;reserved=0
 : it adds OW_ACTION_VERSION to the execution environment.
        
        I was asked by Rodric to send this email to the list because this 
change will require extra changes in the runtime repos for tests (see his 
comment in the PR).
        Since I just joined the list and have until now only been an active 
user of OpenWhisk, I don’t know what the process is to do that next. Any hint 
is appreciated.
        
        BR,
