-------------------------------------------
Summary: Support alternate compression for major and minor
compactions
Key: HBASE-25756
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-25756
Project: HBase
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Compaction
Reporter: Andrew Kyle Purtell
Assignee: Andrew Kyle Purtell
Fix For: 3.0.0-alpha-1, 2.5.0
Resurrecting HBASE-2988.
Currently we can specify a compression algorithm for a column family, or,
optionally an alternative compression algorithm to use when compacting (as
opposed to flushing). Extend this to optionally specify alternative compression
algorithms for minor or major compactions. The interest here is specifically a
separate alternative algorithm for major compactions, which might be an
expensive but aggressively compressing algorithm like bzip2 or lzma (with
custom patches).
