Hi~

I am new to carbon,and I link to carbondata by using  "
getOrCreateCarbonSession("<hdfs store path>","<local metastore path>")  .
I found introduction of "storepath" in official document FAQS .》》The store
location specified while creating carbon session is used by the CarbonData
to store the meta data like the schema, dictionary files, dictionary meta
data and sort indexes.
I can't find a detailed introduction to "metastore".So I want to ask what is
the role of  "metastore"?

Thanks&Regard
Keyann
