> Snapshot Defragmentation to reduce storage footprint

> Key: HDDS-13003
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDDS-13003
> Project: Apache Ozone
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Ozone Manager
> Reporter: Swaminathan Balachandran
> Assignee: Siyao Meng
> Priority: Major
> Labels: pull-request-available
>
> In Apache Ozone, snapshots currently take a checkpoint of the Active Object
> Store (AOS) RocksDB each time a snapshot is created and track the compaction
> of SST files over time. This model works efficiently when snapshots are
> short-lived, as they merely serve as hard links to the AOS RocksDB. However,
> over time, if an older snapshot persists while significant churn occurs in
> the AOS RocksDB (due to compactions and writes), the snapshot RocksDB may
> diverge significantly from both the AOS RocksDB and other snapshot RocksDB
> instances. This divergence increases storage requirements linearly with the
> number of snapshots.
> The primary inefficiency in the current snapshotting mechanism stems from
> constant RocksDB compactions in AOS, which can cause a key, file, or
> directory entry to appear in multiple SST files. Ideally, each unique key,
> file, or directory entry should reside in only one SST file, eliminating
> redundant storage and mitigating the multiplier effect caused by snapshots.
> If implemented correctly, the total RocksDB size would be proportional to the
> total number of unique keys in the system rather than the number of snapshots.
> ----
> Note: *Snapshot Defragmentation* was previously called *Snapshot Compaction*
> during development and in the design doc. It is renamed because the *Snapshot
> Compaction* name can be easily confused with *[RocksDB
> Compaction|https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/wiki/Compaction]*, which is a
> different concept.
