To support binary compatibility and keep code clean we creating a new successor of PageMetaIO - PageIndexMetaIO  PageMetaIOV2 with the new same type T_INDEX_META.

We converting all existing T_META pages into T_INDEX_METAa new version.

We storing additional 8 bytes at the end of each T_INDEX_META and T_PART_META memory pages.

  • Background re-encryption may affect performance. Performance impact can be managed using the following configuration options:
    1. reencryptionBatchSize - number of pages that are scanned during re-encryption under checkpoint lock.
    2. reencryptionRateLimit - page scanning speed limit in megabytes per second.
    3. reencryptionThreadCnt - number of threads used for re-encryption(?).
  • The WAL history can be not enough to store all entries between checkpoints (this should be carefully tuned by properly setting the size of the WAL history and tuning the re-encryption performance).
  • The WAL history (for delta rebalancing) may be lost for all cache groups due to background re-encryption.

Public API changes

IgniteEncryption

New method will be introduced

public IgniteFuture<Void> changeCacheGroupKey(Collection<String> cacheOrGroupNames)

Metrics

Re-encryption process state in CacheGroupMetrics

  • ReencryptionPagesLeft - (long) Total pages left for reencryption.
  • ReencryptionFinished - (boolean) Indicates whether re-encryption is finished or not (it will set to true only when a checkpoint is finished).
