Mike Drob commented on ACCUMULO-351:
------------------------------------
Are the options for compression codecs pluggable? Seems like it would be nice
to just have a compressor/decompressor interface and tell people that they can
just throw implementations in lib/ext.
Does Accumulo do much with the compressors other than toss them over to HDFS
for getting codecs?
> Add support for LZ4 compression

> LZ4 is like LZ0, but with better decompression rates and it's BSD license,
> which means we can incorporate it in svn. Information about it is found here
> http://code.google.com/p/lz4/ . Additionally, there exists a JNI library
> for it (and snappy, for ACCUMULO-139 ) at
> https://github.com/decster/jnicompressions . I did not find the license for
> that, but it's a potential option.
