# Retaining or Automatically Dropping Data
|
|
|
|
Coordinator nodes use rules to determine what data should be loaded or dropped from the cluster. Rules are used for data retention and are set on the coordinator console (http://coordinator_ip:port).
|
|
|
|
Rules indicate how segments should be assigned to different historical node tiers and how many replicas of a segment should exist in each tier. Rules may also indicate when segments should be dropped entirely from the cluster. The coordinator loads a set of rules from the metadata storage. Rules may be specific to a certain datasource and/or a default set of rules can be configured. Rules are read in order and hence the ordering of rules is important. The coordinator will cycle through all available segments and match each segment with the first rule that applies. Each segment may only match a single rule.
|
|
|
|
Note: It is recommended that the coordinator console is used to configure rules. However, the coordinator node does have HTTP endpoints to programmatically configure rules.
|
|
|
|
When a rule is updated, the change may not be reflected until the next time the coordinator runs. This will be fixed in the near future.
|

|
Load Rules
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
Load rules indicate how many replicas of a segment should exist in a server tier.
|
|
|
|
### Forever Load Rule
|
|
|
|
Forever load rules are of the form:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"type" : "loadForever",
|
|
"tieredReplicants": {
|
|
"hot": 1,
|
|
"_default_tier" : 1
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* `type` - this should always be "loadForever"
|
|
* `tieredReplicants` - A JSON Object where the keys are the tier names and values are the number of replicas for that tier.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Interval Load Rule
|
|
|
|
Interval load rules are of the form:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"type" : "loadByInterval",
|
|
"interval": "2012-01-01/2013-01-01",
|
|
"tieredReplicants": {
|
|
"hot": 1,
|
|
"_default_tier" : 1
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* `type` - this should always be "loadByInterval"
|
|
* `interval` - A JSON Object representing ISO-8601 Intervals
|
|
* `tieredReplicants` - A JSON Object where the keys are the tier names and values are the number of replicas for that tier.
|
|
|
|
### Period Load Rule
|
|
|
|
Period load rules are of the form:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"type" : "loadByPeriod",
|
|
"period" : "P1M",
|
|
"tieredReplicants": {
|
|
"hot": 1,
|
|
"_default_tier" : 1
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* `type` - this should always be "loadByPeriod"
|
|
* `period` - A JSON Object representing ISO-8601 Periods
|
|
* `tieredReplicants` - A JSON Object where the keys are the tier names and values are the number of replicas for that tier.
|
|
|
|
The interval of a segment will be compared against the specified period. The rule matches if the period overlaps the interval.
|
|
|
|
Drop Rules
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
Drop rules indicate when segments should be dropped from the cluster.
|
|
|
|
### Forever Drop Rule
|
|
|
|
Forever drop rules are of the form:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"type" : "dropForever"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* `type` - this should always be "dropForever"
|
|
|
|
All segments that match this rule are dropped from the cluster.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Interval Drop Rule
|
|
|
|
Interval drop rules are of the form:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"type" : "dropByInterval",
|
|
"interval" : "2012-01-01/2013-01-01"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* `type` - this should always be "dropByInterval"
|
|
* `interval` - A JSON Object representing ISO-8601 Periods
|
|
|
|
A segment is dropped if the interval contains the interval of the segment.
|
|
|
|
### Period Drop Rule
|
|
|
|
Period drop rules are of the form:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"type" : "dropByPeriod",
|
|
"period" : "P1M"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* `type` - this should always be "dropByPeriod"
|
|
* `period` - A JSON Object representing ISO-8601 Periods
|
|
|
|
The interval of a segment will be compared against the specified period. The period is from some time in the past to the current time. The rule matches if the period contains the interval.
|
|
|
|
# Permanently Deleting Data
|
|
|
|
Druid can fully drop data from the cluster, wipe the metadata store entry, and remove the data from deep storage for any segments that are
|
|
marked as unused (segments dropped from the cluster via rules are always marked as unused). You can submit a [kill task](../ingestion/tasks.html) to the [indexing service](../design/indexing-service.html) to do this.
