[jira] [Commented] (HBASE-14457) Umbrella: Improve Multiple WAL for production usage

["Vladimir Rodionov (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-14457?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14901056#comment-14901056 ] 

Vladimir Rodionov commented on HBASE-14457:
-------------------------------------------

I have a use case for multiwal: can we have separates WALs for different column families? For example we have two CFs in a table, one accept very high rate writes, another is aggregation of the first and very light on a load. I would like to have ability to flush these CFs independently from each other and have separate periodic flush intervals for them.

> HBASE-5699 proposed the idea to run with multiple WAL in regionserver and did a great initial work there, but when trying to use it in our production cluster, we still found several issues to resolve, like tracking multiple WAL paths in replication (HBASE-6617), fixing UT with multiwal provider (HBASE-14411), introducing a namespace-based strategy for RegionGroupingProvider (HBASE-14456), etc. This is an umbrella including(but not limited of) all these works and efforts to make multiple wal ready for production usage and give user a clear picture about it.
> Besides the developing works done, I'd also like to share some scenarios and testing/online data in this JIRA about our usage/performance of multiple wal, to(hopefully) help people better judge whether to enable multiple wal or not in their own cluster and what they might gain.
