Factory for getting current valid instance of IMetaStoreClient Metastore client cannot be cached in authorization interface as that can get invalidated between the calls with the logic in Hive class. The standard way of getting metastore client object is through Hive.get().getMSC(). But Hive class is not a public interface, so this factory helps in hiding Hive class from the authorization interface users.
