Vladimir Rodionov commented on HBASE-12965:
-------------------------------------------
One step further ...
Why would not postpone the actual action until next compaction? And apply
deletion filter on-demand, during read scan? We do not touch data, just store
deletion filter with affected region in a table's meta, we use these active
filters to filter out data during read until the major compaction is complete.
> Enhance the delete option to pass Filters

> Key: HBASE-12965
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-12965
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: API, Deletes, Filters
> Affects Versions: 0.98.10
> Reporter: IMRANKHAN SHAJAHAN
>
> Scan having the option to pass FIlters and filter the rows based on the
> filter.
> But for deleting rows, there is no easy way to pass the filters to Delete
> Object.
> We can do that using below three approach
> 1) Scan the records and create list of Delete object and do the delete. This
> needs iteration in client side.
> 2) Writing map reduce
> 3) BulkDeleteEndPoint
> If we implement the option of passing filters in Delete Object, then we dont
> need to worry about option 2 and 3.
