   @mcvsubbu agreed! I was not proposing to change the API to solve the problem 
(that's why I created this issue instead of continuing the discussion in the 
previous PR), as the proposal is to "find a way support instantly delete the 
segment". 
   
   I am fine with going through setting the RETENTION setting to 0 instead of 7 
approach, as long as I can change the logic (as you mentioned) to instantly 
delete in SegmentDeletionManager
   
   Regarding the use cases @Jackie-Jiang mentioned, I think we can achieve both 
scenarios (technically) via using a table-level config that overrides cluster 
level config as @mcvsubbu mentioned. whether this is convenient for the user or 
not is a different story and we can leave that out of this discussion.
   
   
   So to summarized, I will 
   1. change the logic in SegmentDeletionManager and instantly delete the 
segment if retention period is set to 0
   2. create a tableConfig for retention that overrides cluster level config.
