Having different defaults will likely confuse users, not make usability easier. Personally, I would forbid to start Ignite if IGNITE_HOME is not set, but this suggestion was not accepted by the community.
As far as I know, both rocksdb and SQLite is local only libraries and don't > have any distrubted features. See no difference here. Imagine a user starts only one Ignite node for development or just to play (which, I believe, happes quite a lot) - same as with local databases. BTW, it is impossible to start SQLite without database path, so a user either provides a full path, or a relative path from the current directory - which is an explicit action from a user. > I agree with you. > How it happens, that after wide discussion we implemented, reviewed and > merged wrong defaults? > > As I know, we have explicit release only to change this default. > > This release is broken, isn't it? > I think this is just a miscommunication. Ilya made a fix which was exactly what he meant it to be. As for the release - it may have worse usability, but not more 'broken' as the previous one with the temp directory. At least the data will not be physically removed after the machine restart.
