T Jake Luciani commented on CASSANDRA-1610:
-------------------------------------------
I'm also for an AbstractCompactionTask, we have specific use-cases (such has
CassandraFS in brisk) that would greatly benefit from a custom strategy.
> Pluggable Compaction
> --------------------

> Key: CASSANDRA-1610
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-1610
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core
> Reporter: Chris Goffinet
> Assignee: Alan Liang
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: compaction
> Fix For: 1.0

> Attachments: 0001-move-compaction-code-into-own-package.patch,

> In CASSANDRA-1608, I proposed some changes on how compaction works. I think
> it also makes sense to allow the ability to have pluggable compaction per CF.
> There could be many types of workloads where this makes sense. One example we
> had at Digg was to completely throw away certain SSTables after N days.
> The goal of this ticket is to make compaction pluggable enough to support
> compaction based on max timestamp ordering of the sstables while satisfying
> max sstable size, min and max compaction thresholds. Another goal is to allow
> expiration of sstables based on a timestamp.
