+## Auto-compaction using compaction supervisors
+
+:::info Experimental
+Compaction supervisors are experimental. For production use, we recommend
[Coordinator-based auto-compaction](#auto-compaction-using-coordinator-duties).
+:::
+
+You can run automatic compaction using compaction supervisors on the Overlord
rather than Coordinator duties. Compaction supervisors provide the following
benefits over Coordinator duties:
+
+* Can use the supervisor framework to get information about the
auto-compaction, such as status or state
+* More easily suspend or resume compaction for a datasource
+* Can use either the native compaction engine or the [MSQ task
engine](#use-msq-for-auto-compaction)
+* More reactive and submits tasks as soon as a compaction slot is available
+* Tracked compaction task status to avoid re-compacting an interval repeatedly
+
+
+To use compaction supervisors, set the following properties in your Overlord
runtime properties:
+ * `druid.supervisor.compaction.enabled` to `true` so that compaction tasks
can be run as a supervisor task
+ * `druid.supervisor.compaction.engine` to `msq` to specify the MSQ task
engine as the compaction engine or to `native` to use the native engine.
+
+Compaction uses the same syntax as Coordinator-based auto-compaction with some
differences. Specifically, you submit a supervisor spec with the `type` set to
`autocompact` and the auto-compaction config in the `spec` to configure
auto-compaction.
+
+For information about the syntax, see [automatic-compaction
syntax](#auto-compaction-syntax).
+
+### Manage compaction supervisors with the web console
+
+To submit a supervisor spec for MSQ task engine automatic compaction, perform
the following steps:
+
+1. In the web console, go to the **Supervisors** tab.
+1. Click **...** > **Submit JSON supervisor**.
+1. In the dialog, include the following:
+ - The type of supervisor spec by setting `"type": "autocompact"`
+ - The compaction configuration by adding it to the `spec` field
+ ```json
+ {
+ "type": "autocompact",
+ "spec": {
+ "dataSource": YOUR_DATASOURCE,
+ ...
+ ...
+ }
+ ```
+1. Submit the supervisor.
+
+To stop the automatic compaction task, suspend or terminate the supervisor
through the UI or API.
+
+### Manage compaction supervisors with supervisor APIs
+
+Submitting an automatic compaction as a supervisor task uses the same endpoint
as supervisor tasks for streaming ingestion.
+
+The following example configures auto-compaction for the `wikipedia`
datasource:
+
+```sh
+curl --location --request POST
'http://localhost:8081/druid/indexer/v1/supervisor' \
+--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
+--data-raw '{
+ "type": "autocompact", // required
+ "suspended": false, // optional
+ "spec": { // required
+ "dataSource": "wikipedia", // required
+ "tuningConfig": {...}, // optional
+ "granularitySpec": {...}, // optional
+ "engine": <native|msq>, //optional
+ ...
+ }
+}'
+```
+
+Note that if you omit `spec.engine`, Druid uses the default compaction engine.
You can control the default compaction engine with the
`druid.supervisor.compaction.engine` Overlord runtime property. If
`spec.engine` and `druid.supervisor.compaction.engine` are omitted, Druid
defaults to the native engine.
+
+To stop the automatic compaction task, suspend or terminate the supervisor
through the UI or API.
+
+### Use MSQ for auto-compaction
+
+The MSQ task engine is available as a compaction engine if you configure
auto-compaction to use compaction supervisors. To use the MSQ task engine for
automatic compaction, make sure the following requirements are met:
+
+* Have the [MSQ task engine extension
loaded](../multi-stage-query/index.md#load-the-extension).
+* In your Overlord runtime properties, set the following properties:
+ * `druid.supervisor.compaction.enabled` to `true` so that compaction tasks
can be run as a supervisor task
+ * Optionally, set `druid.supervisor.compaction.engine` to `msq` to specify
the MSQ task engine as the default compaction engine. If you don't do this,
you'll need to set `spec.engine` to `msq` for each compaction supervisor spec
where you want to use the MSQ task engine.
