             Summary: [BRAINSTORM] Combine MVCC and SeqId
                 Key: HBASE-8763
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-8763
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: regionserver
            Reporter: Enis Soztutar
             Fix For: 0.98.0


HBASE-8701 and a lot of recent issues include good discussions about mvcc + 
seqId semantics. It seems that having mvcc and the seqId complicates the 
comparator semantics a lot in regards to flush + WAL replay + compactions + 
delete markers and out of order puts. 

Thinking more about it I don't think we need a MVCC write number which is 
different than the seqId. We can keep the MVCC semantics, read point and 
smallest read points intact, but combine mvcc write number and seqId. This will 
allow cleaner semantics + implementation + smaller data files. 

We can do some brainstorming for 0.98. We still have to verify that this would 
be semantically correct, it should be so by my current understanding.
