--------------------------------
Summary: Add a client write mode like AUTO_BACKGROUND_FLUSH + data
dependencies
Key: KUDU-1841
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KUDU-1841
Project: Kudu
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: client
Reporter: Mike Percy
After considering KUDU-1767, it is clear that we could provide a friendlier
client mode for ingest use cases. I think a useful one would be a mode that
"feels" like AUTO_BACKGROUND_FLUSH - with only a loose idea of ordering to
maximize throughput and no requirement for an explicit flush - but that would
also implement a "mutex" for each unique key being written such that writes to
a given row always occur in order relative to later writes to the same row, as
seen by the client session and the data store.
Such a mode might also be looked at as providing "eventual consistency" because
after quiescing writes and reading the latest values it would appear that the
data was written in client session order.
