----------------------------------------
Thank you for the input. I will go with option 2.
> Supporting partial overwrites for immutable tables with indexes
> ---------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: PHOENIX-5768
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-5768
> Project: Phoenix
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 5.0.0, 4.14.3
> Reporter: Kadir OZDEMIR
> Assignee: Kadir OZDEMIR
> Priority: Critical
>
> Phoenix allows immutable table with indexes to be overwritten partially as
> long as the indexed columns are not updated during partial overwrites.
> However, there is no check/enforcement for this. The immutable index
> mutations are prepared on the client side without reading the existing data
> table rows. This means the index mutations prepared by the client will be
> partial when the data table row mutations are partial. The new indexing
> design assumes index rows are always full and all cells within an index row
> have the same timestamp. On the read path, GlobalIndexChecker returns only
> the cells with the most recent timestamp of the row. This means that if the
> client updates the same row multiple times, the client will read back only
> the most recent update which could be partial.
