The key point is the feature is harmful for Industry users<br/>because most of them do not like cloud. (that is why I opt for<br/>Jialin's suggestion).<br/><br/>&gt; I think that we should discuss some of our discussion points clearly at the beginning of the design, instead of how to revert the PR after the PR is merged. I think there is a problem with this process.<br/><br/>It is of course right, but it does not mean that we can not revert a<br/>PR if it is merged.<br/><br/>&gt; Leaving aside this feature, has the PR of the big feature we merged in been discussed in detail? How to define detailed discussion?<br/><br/>Yes for each big feature we need a discussion in detail. As I have no<br/>much time to join all the features, being the PMC chair, at least I<br/>need to keep the project following its original destination or new<br/>destination if we all agree.<br/><br/>Considering my personal time, I judge and intervene featuers which may<br/>change the product's position. That is why I spent time to discuss<br/>whether we redesign the cluster mode, whether we split an IoTDB<br/>instance into two (CN and DN), and whether we tell IoTDB is for<br/>cloud-native... And that is why I do not care about more detailed<br/>features..<br/><br/>Best,<br/>-----------------------------------<br/>Xiangdong Huang<br/>School of Software, Tsinghua University<br/><br/>Houliang Qi 于2023年4月11日周二 09:51写道：<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt; Hi, all<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt; Leaving aside this feature, has the PR of the big feature we merged in been discussed in detail?

I think there is a problem with this process.<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt; Who can guarantee that there are no bugs and no problems in the developed functions, and we are all improving through continuous iteration. And this feature also refers to the design of some other excellent projects, such as doris and hbase.<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt; As for the name of this feature, in doris, it is called multi-tenancy[1], in hbase it is called quota[2], we can call it resource-control, I think it is ok. After all, we did not reflect the wording of multi-tenancy in the code implementation.<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt; [1] https://doris.apache.org/docs/dev/admin-manual/multi-tenant<br/>&gt; [2] https://hbase.apache.org/book.html#quota<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt; Thanks,<br/>&gt; ---------------------------------------<br/>&gt; Houliang Qi<br/>&gt; BONC, Ltd<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt; ---- Replied Message ----<br/>&gt; | From | Chao Wang |<br/>&gt; | Date | 04/11/2023 09:15 |<br/>&gt; | To | [email protected] |<br/>&gt; | Cc | [email protected] |<br/>&gt; | Subject | Re: [discuss] consider revert the feature of multi-tenancy |<br/>&gt; Hi, Xiangdong,<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt; what is the side effect when we manually create a time series?<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt; How about the pr https://github.com/apache/iotdb/pull/9430, limit the timeseries number of cluster, anyone analyze the side effect about creating a time series?<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt; This discuss is not for getting "+1" or "-1" (though anyone can reply<br/>&gt; the vote..).<br/>&gt; I just want to discuss that do we REALLY consider and analyze the<br/>&gt; feature and the implementation carefully?<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt; Why not discuss before the PR submission, but wait until the PR submission before discussing, wouldn't it waste the energy of community participants? I have also seen emails sent before, not without notifying everyone.<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt; In addition, I think Jialin's suggestion is more reasonable. The description of this function may not be particularly clear. It can be said in another way, such as resource control. However, reverting will undoubtedly be harmful to the community, will discourage the enthusiasm of community participants, and is very unfriendly to community participants. If in doubt, I think it would be better to raise it as soon as possible, instead of waiting for others to finish their hard work before questioning.<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt; Another point is that the multi-tenancy function may be a function required by other companies' IOTDB releases, but will other people's contributions to the community affect the development of the community? I think it will be more conducive to the development of community diversity.<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt; Thanks!<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt; Chao Wang<br/>&gt; BONC ltd<br/>&gt; [email protected]<br/>&gt; On 4/10/2023 23:45，Xiangdong Huang wrote：<br/>&gt; Besides the above, when we merge this pr, we posted the design in the feishu[4] and discussed it online as least two times, and emailed and discussed it with everyone[5], it has been passed 10 days.<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt; I think I know this and I have shown my concern about the possible<br/>&gt; harm of this featuer to IoTDB's edge mode...<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt; 1) how many side-effects the feature will bring;<br/>&gt; We have done some tests under[1], which says with 20 databases and 1 user when we set `quota_enable` to true to enable the multi-tenancy feature, the write performance is only slowed down 1.75%, the read latency has not much difference, we will do more tests to show the side-effects in the feature.<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt; The experiment is rather simple...<br/>&gt; When we really want to show the added codes having no side-effects,<br/>&gt; all the exepriemnt settings should follow a rule that how to fully<br/>&gt; expose the possible problems.<br/>&gt;<br/>&gt; For example, as mult-tenancy limits the available # of devices,<br/>&gt; timeseries, and the spaces of disk, it should have side-effect on<br/>&gt; create new device/timeseries, and writing new data.<br/>&gt; So,<br/>&gt; - what is the side effect when we manually create a time series?<br/>&gt; - what is the side effect when we use automatical creating a time series?<br/>&gt; - what is the side effect when we write new data? (as the data can be<br/>&gt; compressed when it is flushed on disk in async mode, how to check the<br/>&gt; disk space?).
