Roxie platforms
Description
In 702, we have had the flexibility of adding new keys to package file even if a query is NOT using it. But things have changed in OSS and that is even if we add the key in package, it will not be copied to roxie until a query is compiled to use it.
This behavior is not good for 2 reasons
1. It takes away the flexibility for data developers to add the indexes when dev work is complete.
2. Let us say we have a new key for header today and is added to package and it never gets copied to roxie. After 2-3 weeks a query is being compiled which needs the key but if the key is now deleted from thor, we don’t have a choice but to postpone the query release and wait until the next build happens or re-build the needed index. This is concerning.
It would nice if we can have this feature back in place for OSS as this is impacting various projects.
