             Summary: Docs for kudu_read_mode
                 Key: IMPALA-7186
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-7186
             Project: IMPALA
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Docs
    Affects Versions: Impala 3.1.0
            Reporter: Thomas Tauber-Marshall


IMPALA-6812 added a new query option, KUDU_READ_MODE, which should be 
documented with something like:

KUDU_READ_MODE Query Option

This query option allows users to set a desired consistency level for scans of 
Kudu tables. Possible values are DEFAULT, READ_LATEST, and READ_AT_SNAPSHOT. If 
DEFAULT is specified, the value of the startup flag '--kudu_read_mode' will be 
used.

READ_LATEST
Kudu provides no consistency guarantees for this mode, expect that all returned 
rows were committed at some point, sometimes known as 'Read Committed' 
isolation.

READ_AT_SNAPSHOT
Kudu will take a snapshot of the current state of the data and perform the scan 
over the snapshot, possibly after briefly waiting for ongoing writes to 
complete. This provides "Read Your Writes" consistency within a single Impala 
session, except in the case of a Kudu leader change. See the Kudu documentation 
for more details.

Type: string
Default: DEFAULT
Added in: Impala 3.1
