As far as I know, whether it expires is based on the age of reflection, but if the value of refresh is less than expire, then the expire action will never be triggered.
I don’t know if my understanding is correct, please guide me, thanks a lot!
@roychen11232357 That is correct, if your refreshes are working, you should not hit a condition where your reflection has expired
@balaji.ramaswamy
Thank you for your reply, but I want to have a deeper understanding of the context in which the two parameters refresh and expire are used.
I list three situations
- When refresh> expire
- When refresh <expire
- When refresh = expire
I can’t imagine that the combination of these three case is suitable for those actual scenarios
I hope you give me a simple situation, thank you very much
@roychen11232357 You can never set expire < refresh, thats not allowed, would not recommend setting refresh=expire as even if one background refresh fails, your dataset will expire causing an inline refresh
Recommend setting expire = 3x of refresh as that gives buffer for any possible metadata refresh failed or takes longer than the refresh interval defined
