Josh Elser updated ACCUMULO-4156:
---------------------------------
Component/s: replication
> Tunable replication frequency
> -----------------------------
>
> Key: ACCUMULO-4156
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-4156
> Project: Accumulo
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: core, replication
> Affects Versions: 1.7.1
> Reporter: William Slacum
> Fix For: 2.0.0
>
>
> Currently, replication happens when a write ahead log file is closed. The
> only parameter to toggle when this event occurs is write ahead log size, and
> is only applicable to the tablet servers themselves.
> By default this means that when replication happens isn't tied to the table
> it is configured on, but also exogenous factors such as total write load and
> failures. If a system receives ~100MB/day/TServer, and the WAL size is its
> default 1GB, it will take 10 days for any replication event to occur. Another
> possibility is that an unreplicated table is receiving many writes, which
> will cause more frequent replication events, but proportionally the work will
> involve less data for the table being replicated.
> I don't have a specific implementation in mind, but I'd like to see a
> solution that involves isolating the work down to specific table events such
> as time-since-last-replication and data-added-since-last-replication.
> [~elserj] has had some ideas about doing things incrementally within WAL
> files (ie, replicating between two sync points) that can also help with this.
