> Streaming Write Pipeline Approach 2 was written in the initial Ozone 
> Streaming Write Pipeline design doc ([^Ozone Write Streaming.pdf]) to improve 
> the performance compared to phase 1.
> The idea is that instead of sending PutBlock through the AsyncApi#send (which 
> will send to the leader instead of the primary), we will send PutBlock 
> (metadata) as part of the streaming (i.e. DataStreamOutput#writeAsync), 
> shared with WriteChunk (data) writeAsync calls. We can even force a SYNC as 
> part of the PutBlock (i.e. PutBlock ensures that the data have been 
> persistently stored in the underlying storage) instead of having a separate 
> configuration for syncing.
> We have two patches HDDS-6500 and HDDS-6137 that added support for sending 
> PutBlock during stream close. However, there are some issues in the 
> implementation as mentioned in HDDS-12007.
> Furthermore, we are still mixing Approach 1 (Separate Metadata and Data) 
> which is called during flush boundary + close with Approach 2 which is called 
> only during close. In my opinion, we should stick with one approach (either 
> Approach 1 or Approach 2, but not both).
> There are a few things to revisit
>  * We might need to introduce a new Ratis internal mechanism to handle a 
> write "commit" (e.g. PutBlock will write to a separate buffer (not directly 
> to the StateMachine.DataChannel) to be processed separately by another 
> StateMachine.DataStream API like commitStream), or we can reuse 
> StandardWriteOption.SYNC as a way to commit.
>  * We need to see whether we actually need to use Raft at all or can Ratis 
> streaming be used to implement a strongly consistent write pipeline (i.e. 
> Chain replication, CRAQ, HDFS write pipeline), etc
>  * Currently our client implementation (BlockDataStreamOutput, 
> BlockDataStreamOutputEntry, BlockDataStreamOutputEntryPool, etc) are based on 
> the Write Pipeline V1 since it was easier to port last time. We need to see 
> whether we need to rework the entire client output stream implementation to 
> achieve better performance.
