---------------------------------------

Instead of a "magic" Hint, wouldn't it solve the entire thing by providing a
function, e.g. CELL_TIME that can be applied on both sides,
{quote}
If the data is written by Phoenix(not by mapping from an existing hbase table),
cell time stamp of all columns of one row should be same. In that case, your
proposal is same as we provide a pseudocolumn "HTIMESTAMP"(or called it
ROW_TS). The JIRA is about to take advantage of hbase scan time range, which is
row based, so that we can skip store files for time series data use case.

> Key: PHOENIX-914
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-914
> Project: Phoenix
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 4.0.0
> Reporter: Vladimir Rodionov
> Assignee: Vladimir Rodionov
>
> For many applications one of the column of a table can be (and must be)
> naturally mapped
> to HBase timestamp. What it gives us is the optimization on StoreScanner
> where HFiles with timestamps out of range of
> a Scan operator will be omitted. Let us say that we have time-series type of
> data (EVENTS) and custom compaction, where we create
> series of HFiles with continuous non-overlapping timestamp ranges.
> CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS ODS.EVENTS (
> METRICID VARCHAR NOT NULL,
> METRICNAME VARCHAR,
> SERVICENAME VARCHAR NOT NULL,
> ORIGIN VARCHAR NOT NULL,
> APPID VARCHAR,
> IPID VARCHAR,
> NVALUE DOUBLE,
> TIME TIMESTAMP NOT NULL /+ TIMESTAMP +/,
> DATA VARCHAR,
> SVALUE VARCHAR
> CONSTRAINT PK PRIMARY KEY (METRICID, SERVICENAME, ORIGIN, APPID, IPID,
> TIME)
> ) SALT_BUCKETS=40, IMMUTABLE_ROWS=true,VERSIONS=1,DATA_BLOCK_ENCODING='NONE';
> Make note on TIME TIMESTAMP NOT NULL /+ TIMESTAMP +/ - this is the Hint to
> Phoenix that the column
> TIME must be mapped to HBase timestamp.
> The Query:
> Select all events of type 'X' for last 7 days
> SELECT * from EVENTS WHERE METRICID = 'X' and TIME < NOW() and TIME > NOW() -
> 7*24*3600000; (this may be not correct SQL syntax of course)
> These types of queries will be efficiently optimized if:
> 1. Phoenix maps TIME column to HBase timestamp
> 2. Phoenix smart enough to map WHERE clause on TIME attribute to Scan
> timerange
> Although this :
> Properties props = new Properties();
> props.setProperty(PhoenixRuntime.CURRENT_SCN_ATTRIB, Long.toString(ts));
> Connection conn = DriverManager.connect(myUrl, props);
> conn.createStatement().execute("UPSERT INTO myTable VALUES ('a')");
> conn.commit();
> will work in my case- it may not be efficient from performance point of view
> because for every INSERT/UPSERT
> new Connection object and new Statement is created, beside this we still need
> the optimization 2. (see above).
