Perhaps for others on this list that aren’t familiar with the context you could 
fill in the blanks.

It is assumed you are asking about the “feature” where PDX metadata is 
propagated from one connection pool to another in an attempt to support 
multiple distributed systems in the same client. While the short answer is yes, 
Geode Native (GN) goes further in not requiring one to share clients across 
multiple distributed systems. You can create multiple independent caches in the 
same process space with GN. Each of these instances can be connected to 
independent distributed systems. The need to copy PDX metadata goes away. The 
need to create multiple pools to different systems goes away. All the pain and 
issues of supporting this “feature” just goes away. So if there is someone out 
there wanting to do what was done before I would strongly encourage to not and 
instead use independent caches.
