Hi folks, I would like to discuss a new proposal for a polling notification API. The proposal actually contains two "layers": - Entities change notification API (optionally with Java client to poll): a client can receive notifications when an event happens on an entity (containing the entity type, like table, view, namespace, catalog, ...). Events can be entities created, modified, deleted. The use case is basically to have both maintenance anticipation, incremental index update, actions triggering. - Entities change history: a client can get the list of all entities changes in the past N duration (hours, minutes, seconds). It could be an async or sync operation. The use case is about reconciliation and auditing.
Thoughts ? If there's no objections, I will work on a proposal document (with much more details) that I will share on the dev mailing list (and also create a GitHub Issue with "proposal" tag). Regards JB
