Would be nice to gather as much feedback as possible, different people have different opinions here. > Add ZSTD support for over-the-wire compression > ---------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-20488 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-20488 > Project: Apache Cassandra > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Messaging/Internode > Reporter: Thomas Steinmaurer > Assignee: Stefan Miklosovic > Priority: Normal > > Could we please consider to offer ZSTD as additional (beside LZ4) compressor > for over-the-wire compression, if it was not intentional to not supporting > ZSTD in messaging, beside ZSTD being supported for SSTable on-disk > compression. > We still could keep LZ4 as default of course when network compression is > enabled in cassandra.yaml, but for users who want to optimize primary towards > network traffic, this could be quite beneficial from a cost perspective when > thinking about cloud provider (AWS) cross availability zone network traffic > costs as the result of data replication in a setup of replication factor = > number of racks (AVZs), as ZSTD is used to provide a better compression ratio > compared to LZ4 at an acceptable throughput (at least in the SSTable > department). > Configuration-wise this could be an additional parameter in cassandra.yaml > with LZ4 as default. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: commits-unsubscr...@cassandra.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: commits-h...@cassandra.apache.org
