08/29/2023, 7:05 AMHello. Does Metaflow support for multiple developers to use a common local metaflow store? Our usual development happens on a shared virtual server (where we would want to do that) and we dont always want to go to cloud. I know I can change the path to the datastore dir, I'm more asking for someone's experience or whether it has some known problems with race conditions.

08/29/2023, 10:13 AM@echoing-summer-46573 Thanks, I know about that environment variable. I was just curious if it is prepared for 10 users accessing it at the same time (race-conditions etc). I need to know if multiple users can use it simultaneously.

08/29/2023, 2:18 PMWhen you say local metaflow store, are you thinking of using neither the metadata service nor the s3 bucket as the datastore?
