Varun Saxena commented on YARN-3862:
------------------------------------

bq. My feeling is that the concept of timeline filter may become a part of our 
object model, so that client users can easily communicate?
Do we want to expose it to the client ? Suggestion sounds good. That wasnt the 
plan but if everyone agrees, lets have it that way.

bq. are we treating our timeline filters as pure-data objects (models) 
Yes I am as of now treating them as pure data objects. That is why instead of 
using polymorphism and converting the filter to HBase Filter by providing a 
method for conversion in the filter class(es), I kept the conversion in util 
class. The intention was to decouple filters from storage implementation.

bq. is it easy, or possible, for us to implement a "paging filter"? 
Will look into it.

> Currently, we will retrieve all the contents of the field if that field is 
> specified in the query API. In case of configs and metrics, this can become a 
> lot of data even though the user doesn't need it. So we need to provide a way 
> to query only a set of configs or metrics.
> As a comma spearated list of configs/metrics to be returned will be quite 
> cumbersome to specify, we have to support either of the following options :
> # Prefix match
> # Regex
> # Group the configs/metrics and query that group.
> We also need a facility to specify a metric time window to return metrics in 
> a that window. This may be useful in plotting graphs
