Description

Currently, runMetaSync() invokes each Metastore Sync in a blocking fashion, and iterates over the different Metastores sequentially - ([code link|https://github.com/apache/hudi/blob/release-0.12.0/hudi-utilities/src/main/java/org/apache/hudi/utilities/deltastreamer/DeltaSync.java#L695] within 0.12.0 branch)

And runMetaSync() is invoked during each commit, which can lead to a slow down of commit flow if many metastores are being synced. So enable async invocation of runMetaSync().

Research direction

Start in hudi-utilities/src/main/java/org/apache/hudi/utilities/deltastreamer/DeltaSync.java at runMetaSync(), referenced around line 695 in the release-0.12.0 branch. Trace how it is invoked during each commit and how metastores are processed; done means Metastore Sync invocations no longer block the commit flow or require sequential processing.
