Danny Chen commented on HUDI-309: --------------------------------- Related PR: https://github.com/apache/hudi/pull/9209 > General Redesign of Archived Timeline for efficient scan and management > ----------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HUDI-309 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HUDI-309 > Project: Apache Hudi > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Common Core > Reporter: Balaji Varadarajan > Assignee: Danny Chen > Priority: Major > Fix For: 1.0.0 > > Attachments: Archive TImeline Notes by Vinoth 1.jpg, Archived > Timeline Notes by Vinoth 2.jpg > > > As designed by Vinoth: > Goals > # Archived Metadata should be scannable in the same way as data > # Provides more safety by always serving committed data independent of > timeframe when the corresponding commit action was tried. Currently, we > implicitly assume a data file to be valid if its commit time is older than > the earliest time in the active timeline. While this works ok, any inherent > bugs in rollback could inadvertently expose a possibly duplicate file when > its commit timestamp becomes older than that of any commits in the timeline. > # We had to deal with lot of corner cases because of the way we treat a > "commit" as special after it gets archived. Examples also include Savepoint > handling logic by cleaner. > # Small Files : For Cloud stores, archiving simply moves fils from one > directory to another causing the archive folder to grow. We need a way to > efficiently compact these files and at the same time be friendly to scans > Design: > The basic file-group abstraction for managing file versions for data files > can be extended to managing archived commit metadata. The idea is to use an > optimal format (like HFile) for storing compacted version of <commitTime, > Metadata> pairs. Every archiving run will read <commitTime, Metadata> pairs > from active timeline and append to indexable log files. We will run periodic > minor compactions to merge multiple log files to a compacted HFile storing > metadata for a time-range. It should be also noted that we will partition by > the action types (commit/clean). This design would allow for the archived > timeline to be queryable for determining whether a timeline is valid or not. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
