instead of option, can we call it 'mode'? Also, it is not clear where we
specify new partitions to be assigned. "INIT" also seems to be misleading. Why
not "KEEP"? If "INIT" is specified, then is it true that the existing
assignments will not be moved? if "REASSIGN" is specified, is it true that the
algorithm will try not to move existing assignments, but may do so?

> Key: HELIX-674
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HELIX-674
> Project: Apache Helix
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Jiajun Wang

> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 0.8.x

> Attachments: Constraint-BasedResourceRebalancing-080318-2226-240.pdf

>
> Helix rebalancer assigns resources according to different strategies.
> Recently, we optimize the strategy for evenness and minimize movement.
> However, the evenness here only applies to partition numbers. Moreover, we've
> got more requests for customizable rebalancer from our users.
> Take partition weight as an example:
> In reality, partition replicas have different size. We use "partition weight"
> as an abstraction of the partition size. It can be network traffic usage,
> disk usage, or any other combined factors.
> Given each partition may have different weights, Helix should be able to
> assign partition accordingly. So that the distribution would be even
> regarding the weight.
> In this project, we are planning new rebalancer mechanism that generates
> resource partition assignment according to a list of "constraints". Current
> rebalance strategy can be regarded as one kind of constraint. Moving forward,
> Helix users would be able to extend the constraint interface using their own
> logic.
> Some init discussions are in progress and we will have a proposal posted here
> soon.
