Description
We need to update some discription in the doc of Impala components.
https://impala.apache.org/docs/build/asf-site-html/topics/impala_components.html
In the section ofThe Impala Catalog Service, this is stale:
When you create a table, load data, and so on through Hive, you do need to issue REFRESH or INVALIDATE METADATA on an Impala daemon before executing a query there.
We should mention "Automatic Invalidation/Refresh of Metadata", a.k.a. HMS event processor, and add links for it.
Change "Impala daemons" to "Impala Coordinators" in this sentence:
The Impala component known as the Catalog Service relays the metadata changes from Impala SQL statements to all the Impala daemons in a cluster.
Also add this link for "On-demand Metadata"
