/**
* Consisting of a top level Index interface and two sub-interfaces which handle read and write operations,
* Searcher and Indexer respectively, this defines a secondary index implementation.
* Instantiation is done via reflection and implementations must provide a constructor which takes the base
* table's ColumnFamilyStore and the IndexMetadata which defines the Index as arguments. e.g:
* {@code MyCustomIndex( ColumnFamilyStore baseCfs, IndexMetadata indexDef )}
*
* The main interface defines methods for index management, index selection at both write and query time,
* as well as validation of values that will ultimately be indexed.
* Two sub-interfaces are also defined, which represent single use helpers for short lived tasks at read and write time.
* Indexer: an event listener which receives notifications at particular points during an update of a single partition
* in the base table.
* Searcher: performs queries against the index based on a predicate defined in a RowFilter. An instance
* is expected to be single use, being involved in the execution of a single ReadCommand.
*
* The main interface includes factory methods for obtaining instances of both of the sub-interfaces;
*
* The methods defined in the top level interface can be grouped into 3 categories:
*
* Management Tasks:
* This group of methods is primarily concerned with maintenance of secondary indexes are are mainly called from
* SecondaryIndexManager. It includes methods for registering and un-registering an index, performing maintenance
* tasks such as (re)building an index from SSTable data, flushing, invalidating and so forth, as well as some to
* retrieve general metadata about the index (index name, any internal tables used for persistence etc).
* Several of these maintenance functions have a return type of {@code Callable}; the expectation for these methods is
* that any work required to be performed by the method be done inside the Callable so that the responsibility for
* scheduling its execution can rest with SecondaryIndexManager. For instance, a task like reloading index metadata
* following potential updates caused by modifications to the base table may be performed in a blocking way. In
* contrast, adding a new index may require it to be built from existing SSTable data, a potentially expensive task
* which should be performed asynchronously.
*
* Index Selection:
* There are two facets to index selection, write time and read time selection. The former is concerned with
* identifying whether an index should be informed about a particular write operation. The latter is about providing
* means to use the index for search during query execution.
*
* Validation:
* Values that may be written to an index are checked as part of input validation, prior to an update or insert
* operation being accepted.
*
*
* Sub-interfaces:
*
* Update processing:
* Indexes are subscribed to the stream of events generated by modifications to the base table. Subscription is
* done via first registering the Index with the base table's SecondaryIndexManager. For each partition update, the set
* of registered indexes are then filtered based on the properties of the update using the selection methods on the main
* interface described above. Each of the indexes in the filtered set then provides an event listener to receive
* notifications about the update as it is processed. As such then, a event handler instance is scoped to a single
* partition update; SecondaryIndexManager obtains a new handler for every update it processes (via a call to the
* factory method, indexerFor. That handler will then receive all events for the update, before being
* discarded by the SecondaryIndexManager. Indexer instances are never re-used by SecondaryIndexManager and the
* expectation is that each call to indexerFor should return a unique instance, or at least if instances can
* be recycled, that a given instance is only used to process a single partition update at a time.
*
* Search:
* Each query (i.e. a single ReadCommand) that uses indexes will use a single instance of Index.Searcher. As with
* processing of updates, an Index must be registered with the primary table's SecondaryIndexManager to be able to
* support queries. During the processing of a ReadCommand, the Expressions in its RowFilter are examined to determine
* whether any of them are supported by a registered Index. supportsExpression is used to filter out Indexes which
* cannot support a given Expression. After filtering, the set of candidate indexes are ranked according to the result
* of getEstimatedResultRows and the most selective (i.e. the one expected to return the smallest number of results) is
* chosen. A Searcher instance is then obtained from the searcherFor method and used to perform the actual Index lookup.
* Finally, Indexes can define a post processing step to be performed on the coordinator, after results (partitions from
* the primary table) have been received from replicas and reconciled. This post processing is defined as a
* {@code java.util.functions.BiFunction}, that is a function which takes as
* arguments a PartitionIterator (containing the reconciled result rows) and a RowFilter (from the ReadCommand being
* executed) and returns another iterator of partitions, possibly having transformed the initial results in some way.
* The post processing function is obtained from the Index's postProcessorFor method; the built-in indexes which ship
* with Cassandra return a no-op function here.
*
* An optional static method may be provided to validate custom index options (two variants are supported):
*
* {@code public static Map validateOptions(Map options);}
*
* The input is the map of index options supplied in the WITH clause of a CREATE INDEX statement.
*
* {@code public static Map validateOptions(Map options, CFMetaData cfm);}
*
* In this version, the base table's metadata is also supplied as an argument.
* If both overloaded methods are provided, only the one including the base table's metadata will be invoked.
*
* The validation method should return a map containing any of the supplied options which are not valid for the
* implementation. If the returned map is not empty, validation is considered failed and an error is raised.
* Alternatively, the implementation may choose to throw an org.apache.cassandra.exceptions.ConfigurationException
* if invalid options are encountered.
