----------------------------------------
Assignee: Gokcen Iskender
> Supporting the single cell storage format for mutable global indexes
> --------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: PHOENIX-5923
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-5923
> Project: Phoenix
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 5.0.0, 4.14.3
> Reporter: Kadir OZDEMIR
> Assignee: Gokcen Iskender
> Priority: Major
>
> It is known that IMMUTABLE_STORAGE_SCHEME = SINGLE_CELL_ARRAY_WITH_OFFSETS
> leads to performance improvement and storage saving. As the name implies this
> storage scheme is currently supported for immutable tables only. Supporting
> the SINGLE_CELL_ARRAY_WITH_OFFSETS storage format for mutable table requires
> reading existing rows for before mutating them, i.e., read-modify-write.
> However, this storage scheme can be used for mutable global index tables
> without any additional IO operation since for every index table update, we
> always read the corresponding data table row and generate the full index row
> from the current state of the data table row and the pending mutation on this
> row. This full index row can be stored using the
> SINGLE_CELL_ARRAY_WITH_OFFSETS storage format even though the data table can
> continue using a mutable storage format. This will allow index tables to
> enjoy the performance improvement and storage saving due to this storage
> format.
