Thank you dear @jason
1-would you please clarify this part of your sentence “The files in the WAL (Write-Ahead-Log) are appended to as new writes and deletes arrive”?
2-what is the relation between WAL, TSM? influx write on both of them? when write on each of them?
3-is it possible configure to use only WAL or only TSM for special scenario that required read or query faster ?
4-as you mention TSM split when reach to 2 GB but i saw more TSM files that split with lower size such as 40Mb, or 30Mb!
5-any technical document that describe it clearly or i need to get enterprise support to access more documents?
6-what is the tombstone files, are they temp files?
Thanks,
