Vinoth Chandar commented on HUDI-326: ------------------------------------- [~bdscheller] We do have all the commit metadata that can be used to build a self contained filesystem view without having to scan/list.. That work is now gated behind https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HUDI-309 . Please see if HUDI-15 is what you are looking for. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HUDI-15 > Support deleting records with only record_key > --------------------------------------------- > > Key: HUDI-326 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HUDI-326 > Project: Apache Hudi (incubating) > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Brandon Scheller > Priority: Major > > Currently Hudi requires 3 things to issue a hard delete using > EmptyHoodieRecordPayload. It requires (record_key, partition_key, > precombine_key). > This means that in many real use scenarios, you are required to issue a > select query to find the partition_key and possibly precombine_key for a > certain record before deleting it. > We would like to avoid this extra step by being allowed to issue a delete > based on only the record_key of a record. > This means that it would blanket delete all records with that specific > record_key across all partitions. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
