    I don't think we should change the PStore API without some level of 
discussion since it was designed as a public API. Can you share the driving 
requirements that pushed you to propose these changes? I also think renaming 
PStore to PersistentStore could cause user confusion since PersistentStore is 
very generic and could be mistaken for some place where people can store tables.

> We rely on E/PStore interfaces to persist data. Even though E/PStore stands 
> for Ephemeral and Persistent stores respectively, the current design for 
> EStore does not extend the interface/functionality of PStore at all, which 
> hints abstraction for EStore is redundant. This issue proposes a new unified 
> Store interface replacing the old E/PStore that exposes an additional method 
> that report persistence level as follows:
> {code:title=Store interface}
> interface Store<V> {
>   StoreMode getMode();
>   V get(String key);
>   ...
> }
> enum StoreMode {
>   EPHEMERAL,
>   PERSISTENT,
>   ...
> }
> {code}
> The new design brings in less redundancy, more centralized code, ease to 
> reason and maintain.
