clintropolis opened a new pull request, #13988:
URL: https://github.com/apache/druid/pull/13988
### Description
Follow up to #13854, to add a backwards compatibility mode for users of
Druid 25.0 to upgrade to Druid 26.0 in a manner that allows for errorless
rolling upgrades and downgrades by writing out the older format version.
#### Release note
The `frontCoded` type of `stringEncodingStrategy` on `indexSpec`, has been
improved with a new segment format version which typically has faster read
speeds and reduced segment size. However, this improvement is backwards
incompatible with Druid 25.0, so a new `formatVersion` option has been added,
which defaults to the new `1`, but can be specified as `0` to allow migration
to Druid 26.0 by the way of writing out the older format until the ability to
rollback to Druid 25.0 is no longer determined to be needed.
