Lin Liu commented on HUDI-6701:
-------------------------------

[~guoyihua], [~sivabalan], [~rmahindra], do we have any existing scripts/code 
to generate Hudi tables? And any code pointers to auto key generations? Thanks.

> Explore use of UUID-6/7 as a replacement for current auto generated keys

> Today, we auto generate string keys of the form 
> (HoodieRecord#generateSequenceId), which is highly compressible, esp compared 
> to uuidv1, when we store as a string column inside a parquet file.
> {code:java}
>   public static String generateSequenceId(String instantTime, int 
> partitionId, long recordIndex) {
>     return instantTime + "_" + partitionId + "_" + recordIndex;
>   }
> {code}
> As a part of this task, we'd love to understand if 
> - Can uuid6 or 7, provide similar compressed storage footprint when written 
> as a column in a parquet file. 
> - can the current format be represented as a 160-bit number i.e 2 longs, 1 
> int in storage? would that save us further in storage costs?  
> (Orthogonal consideration is the memory needed to hold the key string, which 
> can be higher than a 160bits. We can discuss this later, once we understand 
> storage footprint)
