[jira] [Created] (ACCUMULO-980) support pluggable codecs for RFile

Adam Fuchs created ACCUMULO-980:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: support pluggable codecs for RFile
                 Key: ACCUMULO-980
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-980
             Project: Accumulo
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Adam Fuchs
            Assignee: Adam Fuchs


As part of the encryption at rest story, RFile should support pluggable modules where it currently has hardcoded options for compression codecs. This is a natural place to add encryption capabilities, as the cost of encryption would likely not be significantly different from the cost of compression, and the block-level integration should maintain the same seek and scan performance. Given the many implementation options for both encryption and compression, it makes sense to have a plugin structure here.
