> This proposal is to make CommitLog pluggable, as discussed in [the Cassandra dev mailing list|https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/1936194d86f5954fa099ced9a0733458eb3249bff3fae3e03e2d1bd8@%3Cdev.cassandra.apache.org%3E].
> We are developing a Cassandra plugin to store CommitLog on our low-latency Flash device (CAPI-Flash). To do that, the original CommitLog interface must be changed to allow plugins. Synching to CommitLog is one of the performance bottlenecks in Cassandra especially with batch commit. I think the pluggable CommitLog will allow other interesting alternatives, such as one using SPDK.
> Our high-level design is similar to the CacheProvider framework
> in org.apache.cassandra.cache:
> * Introduce a new interface, ICommitLog, with methods like getCurrentPosition(), add(), shutdownBlocking(), etc.
> * CommitLog implements ICommitLog.
> * Introduce a new interface, CommitLogProvider, with a create() method, returning ICommitLog.
> * Introduce a new class FileCommitLogProvider implementing CommitLogProvider, to return a singleton instance of CommitLog.
> * Introduce a new property in cassandra.yaml, commitlog_class_name, which specifies what CommitLogProvider to use.  The default is FileCommitLogProvider.
> * Introduce a new class, CommitLogHelper, that loads the class specified by the commitlog_class_name property, creates an instance, and stores it to CommitLogHelper.instance.
> * Replace all of the references to CommitLog.instance with CommitLogHelper.instance.
> Attached are two patches. "pluggable-commitlog-src.patch" is for changes in the src directory, and "pluggable-commitlog-test.patch" is for the test directory.
