Hi Felix,

I will try to be faster going forward. Apologies for the late reply. Thanks
Raymond for all the great clarifications.

On RFC-21, I think it's safe to assume it will be available by Jan or so.
0.8.0 (Uber folks, correct me if I am wrong)

>>For approach 2 – the reason for prepending datetime is to have an
incrementing id, otherwise your uuid is a purely random id and wont support
range pruning, while writing, correct?
You are right. In general, we only have the following levers to control
performance. I take it that "origination datetime" is not monotonically
increasing? Otherwise Approach 1 is good, right?

If you want to optimize for upsert performance,
- prepending a timestamp field would help. if you simply prepend the date,
which is already also the partition path, then all keys in that partition
will have the same prefix and no additional pruning opportunities exist.
- Advise using dynamic bloom filters
(config hoodie.bloom.index.filter.type=DYNAMIC_V0), to ensure the bloom
filters filter our enough files after range pruning.

For good delete performance, we can cluster records by user_id for older
partitions, such that all records a user is packed into the smallest number
of files. This way,  when only a small number of users leave,
your delete won't rewrite the entire partition's files. Clustering support
is landing by the end of year in 0.7.0. (There is a PR out already, if you
want to test/play).

All of this is also highly workload specific. So we can get into those
details, if that helps. MOR is a much better alternative for dealing with
deletes IMO.
It was specifically designed, used for those, since it can absorb the
deletes into log files and apply them later amortizing costs.

Future is good, since we are investing in record level indexes that could
also natively index secondary fields like user_id. Again expect that to be
there in 0.9.0 or something, around Mar.
For now, we have to play with how we lay out the data to squeeze
performance.

Hope that helps.

thanks
vinoth
