Look at Error handling #36

Open ashwanthkumar opened 7 years ago

ashwanthkumar commented 7 years ago

Today we don't do any try .. catch anywhere in the project. gRPC seems to be throwing a lot of RuntimeException at different places. We need to track each of them and address them. This is more of an epic which will be on-going for a while.

For any PRs or commits that has discussions related to this, please tag them with this issue so it's automatically tracked.
