Data cleanup / Eviction policy
------------------------------
Key: ZOOKEEPER-1121
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-1121
Project: ZooKeeper
Issue Type: Wish
Components: server
Reporter: Matthew
We are using zookeeper to store versions of business objects in order to
achieve coherence, distributed locks, etc. These business objects have limited
lifespans (i.e. objects created over a week ago are rarely accessed), so
effectively, after some time period, we do not need their information in
zookeeper anymore. It would be nice to have a built-in tool or mechanism for
expiring old data, much like how PurgeTxnLog cleans the snapshot and
transaction log files.
Any thoughts on whether this can be supported or how it can be accomplished?
Currently we are walking the tree and deleting nodes with an old mtime.
