Clara Xiong commented on HBASE-15454:
-------------------------------------
And yes, if you want to align the archive window by calendar boundaries, please
do so by implementing a calendar based window so that minor/major compaction
and archiving all follow the same calendar based boundaries, instead of
slicing/concatenating the data in 2 ways in 2 concurrent routines. That is why
I said a user should only need one type of window/layout.
The maxAge config is orthogonal to the window boundaries.
> Archive store files older than max age

> Sometimes the old data is rarely touched but we can not remove it. So archive
> it to several big files(by year or something) and use EC to reduce the
> redundancy.
