v.22.11New Feature
Add min_age_to_force_merge_on_partition_only setting for partition optimization
Add min_age_to_force_merge_on_partition_only setting to optimize old parts for the entire partition only. #42659 (Antonio Andelic).Why it matters
This feature allows users to efficiently optimize old data parts by forcing merges at the partition level, which can improve performance and resource utilization by avoiding unnecessary merges of more recent parts.How to use it
Set themin_age_to_force_merge_on_partition_only setting in the configuration or query context to specify the minimum age of parts that should be merged only on the partition level. This enables targeted merging of old parts without affecting newer data.
