[DISCUSSION] Update the function of show segments
Hi, dev
Currently, I am thinking about the function of show segments. We can see
segments of carbon table by executing this command, but it can only return
segmentId, status, load start time and load end time, and all this
information is from tablestatus, which I think it may be not enough for
users to know better about the situation of each segment, so now I want to
add two parameters, one is the number of carbon data file under segment
folder, another is the number of carbon index file under segment folder.
Any suggestion about my idea ?
Welcome to communicate.
Regards.
Chenerlu.

Yeah. agree with ravi.
We can keep both "Show segments" and "Show extended segment" .
@xuchuanyin, as i know currently the result of show segment is formatted.

If adding a new statement, I suggest to learn from hive:
desc formatted table_name;
VS
desc table_name;
Show segment...
VS
Show formatted segment...

Hi,
I agree with Jacky and David.
But it is suggested to keep current 'show segments' command without any
change and provide only brief information about segments.
Add new extended command like `extended show segments` to provide more
information which is required for power user.

I agree with Jacky.
I think enhanced segment metadata will help us to understand the table.
I suggest the following properties for segment metadata:
1. total data file size
2. total index file size
3. data file count
4. index file count
5. last modified time (last update time)
Through these information, we can answer the following questions.
1. Is there small file issue? Whether table require compaction or not, which
type should be used?
2. Whether index files is too many or not? we will can estimate the total
size of index in memory whether it is big or small for driver memory
configuration.
3. Whether some segment has too many files? Maybe it is useful to locate
some performance issue.

I think it is good to have this feature, it may help user to decide whether manual compaction is needed.
Instead of outputting number of carbon index file per segment, I suggest output data size of the segment is more helpful.

What is the use case? When user would be interested in knowing number of
files?

Nice.
what about the update status of the segment? Maybe someone are interested in the last modify time of a segment.
