Tsuyoshi OZAWA commented on YARN-2517:
--------------------------------------
I see. I'll try to prototype the new async method to post entities.

If you guys think there is a lot more functionality coming in an async class in
the future, can we hear about some of them here?

Currently, TimelineClient just have APIs to post entities. I think there is a
possibility to have helper methods like {{TimelineCilent#getEntities()}} for
applications of Timeline Server.

> In some scenarios, we'd like to put timeline entities in another thread no to
> block the current one.
> It's good to have a TimelineClientAsync like AMRMClientAsync and
> NMClientAsync. It can buffer entities, put them in a separate thread, and
> have callback to handle the responses.
