stack commented on HBASE-8763:
------------------------------
Can we just do the mvcc and seqid unification? It would be a nice
simplification. Only hitch I see is ensuring that we write the WAL in
sequenceid order (might require a little sort before we add to the WAL done
under lock).
On merging in ts, that looks like we'd be asking for trouble (smile). That'd
be radical.
> [BRAINSTORM] Combine MVCC and SeqId
> -----------------------------------
>
> Key: HBASE-8763
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-8763
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: regionserver
> Reporter: Enis Soztutar
> Fix For: 0.98.0
>
>
> HBASE-8701 and a lot of recent issues include good discussions about mvcc +
> seqId semantics. It seems that having mvcc and the seqId complicates the
> comparator semantics a lot in regards to flush + WAL replay + compactions +
> delete markers and out of order puts.
> Thinking more about it I don't think we need a MVCC write number which is
> different than the seqId. We can keep the MVCC semantics, read point and
> smallest read points intact, but combine mvcc write number and seqId. This
> will allow cleaner semantics + implementation + smaller data files.
> We can do some brainstorming for 0.98. We still have to verify that this
> would be semantically correct, it should be so by my current understanding.
