Uncompressed key/value records. 2. Record compressed key/value records - only 'values' are compressed here. - 3. Block compressed key/value records - both keys are values are collected in 'blocks' separately and compressed.The size of the 'block' is configurable. + 3. Block compressed key/value records - both keys and values are collected in 'blocks' separately and compressed. The size of the 'block' is configurable. The recommended way is to use the SequenceFile.createWriter methods to construct the 'preferred' writer implementation.
