             Summary: Evaluate alternatives to using "hoodie.properties" as state store for Metadata Table
                 Key: HUDI-4185
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HUDI-4185
             Project: Apache Hudi
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Alexey Kudinkin
            Assignee: Sagar Sumit


Currently Metadata Table uses "hoodie.properties" file as a state-store adding properties reflecting the state of the metadata table being indexed.

This is creating some issues (for ex, HUDI-4138) in respect to the "hoodie.properties" lifecycle as most of the already existing code assumes that the file is (mostly) immutable.

We should re-evaluate our usage of "hoodie.properties" as a state-store given that it has ripple effects on the existing components.
