So in ozone, every datanode would be in multiple raft groups or say > pipelines with multi-raft, which brings: > # Is there any plan for coalesced heartbeat on single node? > # Are we going to use gRPC to achieve coalesced heartbeat like what > cockroach does? Shall we assume only Java APIs are required? > # Either we have coalesced heartbeat, every node would have chances to be > selected as leader in each raft group. So to the extreme extend, one node, > say node A, would be the leader to all raft groups. If we implement coalesced > heartbeat, there would more easily push node A to be the bottleneck for > future stumbling in performance. Any idea on how to avoid this extremity? > Maybe do a candidate scrub? > # How do we plan to test the 'single node, multi raft groups' scenario? > Furthermore, if we allow coalesced heartbeat configurable, how to determine > when and whether to use it? > > [~szetszwo] [~Sammi] [~xyao] [~waterlx] -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.2#803003)
