Adds a few basic docs for fault tolerance in Impala. Covers the following topics: * Transparent query retries * Node blacklisting * Statestore heartbeats This commit only adds a high level explanation of the afortmentioned fault tolerance concepts. The docs should be expanded on in a future commit.

This section describes the fault tolerance mechanisms built into
|
|
Impala. Fault tolerance allows Impala to continue to operate in the
|
|
face of hardware or process faults.

Impala uses the statestored process to provide cluster membership for
|
|
an Impala cluster. This is one of the core ways Impala provides fault
|
|
tolerance. The statestore periodically sends heartbeats (RPCs) to each
|
|
impalad process. If an impalad stops responding to heartbeats, the
|
|
statestored will consider the impalad as failed, and it will remove it
|
|
from the cluster membership state. The updates to the cluster
|
|
membership will be broadcasted to all impalads.
