Dave Latham commented on HBASE-15181:
-------------------------------------
Definitely seems to depend on the pattern of loads. If most bulk loads are for
data for a limited time range then the files will naturally move into
appropriate windows, and scans for recent data should include or skip them as
appropriate. If the bulk loads cover data over the full history then scans for
recent data will end up including them and touching the old data they have as
well until the file ages, so some sort of re-compacting (such as doing a major
compaction splitting the data into windowed output files) would seem to help.

> This is a simple implementation of date-based tiered compaction similar to
> Cassandra's for the following benefits:
> 1. Improve date-range-based scan by structuring store files in date-based
> tiered layout.
> 2. Reduce compaction overhead.
> 3. Improve TTL efficiency.
> Perfect fit for the use cases that:
> 1. has mostly date-based date write and scan and a focus on the most recent
> data.
> 2. never or rarely deletes data.
> Out-of-order writes are handled gracefully so the data will still get to the
> right store file for time-range-scan and re-compacton with existing store
> file in the same time window is handled by ExploringCompactionPolicy.
> Time range overlapping among store files is tolerated and the performance
> impact is minimized.
> Configuration can be set at hbase-site or overriden at per-table or
> per-column-famly level by hbase shell.
> Design spec is at
