+## Concurrent compaction
+
+:::info
+Concurrent compaction is an [experimental feature](../development/experimental.md) and is not currently available for SQL-based ingestion.
+:::
+
+If you enable automatic compaction, you can also use concurrent compaction for streaming and legacy JSON-based batch ingestion. Concurrent compaction compacts the data as you ingest it.
+
+Setting up concurrent compaction is a two-step process. The first is to update your datasource and the second is to update your ingestion job.
+
+Using concurrent compaction in the following scenarios can be beneficial:
+
+- If the job with an `APPEND` task and the job with a `REPLACE` task have the same segment granularity. For example, when a datasource and its streaming ingestion job have the same granularity.
+- If the job with an `APPEND` task  has a finer segment granularity than the replacing job.
+
+We do not recommend using concurrent compaction when the job with an `APPEND` task has a coarser granularity than the job with a `REPLACE` task. For example, if the `APPEND` job has a yearly granularity and the `REPLACE` job has a monthly granularity. The job that finishes second will fail.
+
+### Configure concurrent compaction
+
+##### Update the compaction settings with the API
+
+ First, prepare your datasource for concurrent compaction by setting its task lock type to `REPLACE`.
+Add the `taskContext` like you would any other auto-compaction setting through the API:
+
+```shell
+curl --location --request POST 'http://localhost:8081/druid/coordinator/v1/config/compaction' \
+--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
+--data-raw '{
+    "dataSource": "YOUR_DATASOURCE",
+    "taskContext": {
+        "taskLockType": "REPLACE"
+    }
+}'
+```
+
+##### Update the compaction settings with the UI
+
+In the **Compaction config** for a datasource, set  **Allow concurrent compaction append tasks** to **True**.
+
+#### Add a task lock type to your ingestion job
+
+Next, you need to configure the task lock type for your ingestion job. For streaming jobs, the context parameter goes in your supervisor spec. For legacy JSON-based batch ingestion, the context parameter goes in your ingestion spec. You can provide the context parameter through the API like any other parameter for a streaming ingestion or JSON-based batch ingestion.
+
+##### Add the task lock type through the API
+
+Add the following JSON snippet to your supervisor or ingestion spec if you're using the API:
+
+   ```json
+   "context": {
+      "taskLockType": LOCK_TYPE
+   }   
+   ```
+
+The `LOCK_TYPE` depends on what you're trying to accomplish.
+
+Set  `taskLockType` to `REPLACE` if you're replacing data. For example, if you use any of the following partitioning types, use `REPLACE`:
+
+- hash partitioning 
+- range partitioning
+- dynamic partitioning with append to existing set to `false`
+
+Set `taskLockType` to  `APPEND` if dynamic partitioning with append to existing is set to `true`. 
+
+If you have multiple append jobs all targeting the same datasource and want them to run simultaneously, you need to also include the following context parameter:
+
+```json
+"useSharedLock": "true"
+```
+
+Keep in mind that `taskLockType` takes precedence over `useSharedLock`. Do not use it with `REPLACE` task locks.
+
+##### Add a task lock using the Druid console
+
+As part of the batch or streaming ingestion **Load data** wizards, you can choose **Allow concurrent append tasks** to use concurrent compaction.

 Query performance in Apache Druid depends on optimally sized segments. Compaction is one strategy you can use to optimize segment size for your Druid database. Compaction tasks read an existing set of segments for a given time interval and combine the data into a new "compacted" set of segments. In some cases the compacted segments are larger, but there are fewer of them. In other cases the compacted segments may be smaller. Compaction tends to increase performance because optimized segments require less per-segment processing and less memory overhead for ingestion and for querying paths.

 Compaction does not improve performance in all situations. For example, if you rewrite your data with each ingestion task, you don't need to use compaction.

-## Types of compaction

-You can configure the Druid Coordinator to perform automatic compaction, also called auto-compaction, for a datasource. Using its [segment search policy](../design/coordinator.md#segment-search-policy-in-automatic-compaction), the Coordinator periodically identifies segments for compaction starting from newest to oldest. When the Coordinator discovers segments that have not been compacted or segments that were compacted with a different or changed spec, it submits compaction tasks for the time interval covering those segments.

 In cases where you require more control over compaction, you can manually submit compaction tasks. For example:
 
 - Automatic compaction is running into the limit of task slots available to it, so tasks are waiting for previous automatic compaction tasks to complete. Manual compaction can use all available task slots, therefore you can complete compaction more quickly by submitting more concurrent tasks for more intervals.
 - You want to force compaction for a specific time range or you want to compact data out of chronological order.

-## Setting up manual compaction
-
-To perform a manual compaction, you submit a compaction task. Compaction tasks merge all segments for the defined interval according to the following syntax:
-
-```json
-{
-    "type": "compact",
-    "id": <task_id>,
-    "dataSource": <task_datasource>,
-    "ioConfig": <IO config>,
-    "dimensionsSpec": <custom dimensionsSpec>,

-
-|Field|Description|Required|
-|-----|-----------|--------|
-|`type`|Task type. Set the value to `compact`.|Yes|
-|`id`|Task ID|No|
-|`dataSource`|Data source name to compact|Yes|
-|`ioConfig`|I/O configuration for compaction task. See [Compaction I/O configuration](#compaction-io-configuration) for details.|Yes|
-|`dimensionsSpec`|When set, the compaction task uses the specified `dimensionsSpec` rather than generating one from existing segments. See [Compaction dimensionsSpec](#compaction-dimensions-spec) for details.|No|
-|`transformSpec`|When set, the compaction task uses the specified `transformSpec` rather than using `null`. See [Compaction transformSpec](#compaction-transform-spec) for details.|No|
-|`metricsSpec`|When set, the compaction task uses the specified `metricsSpec` rather than generating one from existing segments.|No|
-|`segmentGranularity`|Deprecated. Use `granularitySpec`.|No|
-|`tuningConfig`|[Tuning configuration](../ingestion/native-batch.md#tuningconfig) for parallel indexing. `awaitSegmentAvailabilityTimeoutMillis` value is not supported for compaction tasks. Leave this parameter at the default value, 0.|No|
-|`granularitySpec`|When set, the compaction task uses the specified `granularitySpec` rather than generating one from existing segments. See [Compaction `granularitySpec`](#compaction-granularity-spec) for details.|No|
-|`context`|[Task context](../ingestion/tasks.md#context)|No|
-
-:::info
- Note: Use `granularitySpec` over `segmentGranularity` and only set one of these values. If you specify different values for these in the same compaction spec, the task fails.
-:::
-
-To control the number of result segments per time chunk, you can set [`maxRowsPerSegment`](../ingestion/native-batch.md#partitionsspec) or [`numShards`](../ingestion/../ingestion/native-batch.md#tuningconfig).
-
-:::info
- You can run multiple compaction tasks in parallel. For example, if you want to compact the data for a year, you are not limited to running a single task for the entire year. You can run 12 compaction tasks with month-long intervals.
-:::
-
-A compaction task internally generates an `index` or `index_parallel` task spec for performing compaction work with some fixed parameters. For example, its `inputSource` is always the [`druid` input source](../ingestion/input-sources.md), and `dimensionsSpec` and `metricsSpec` include all dimensions and metrics of the input segments by default.
-
-Compaction tasks typically fetch all [relevant segments](#compaction-io-configuration) prior to launching any subtasks, _unless_ the following properties are all set to non-null values. It is strongly recommended to set them to non-null values to maximize performance and minimize disk usage of the `compact` task:
-
-- [`granularitySpec`](#compaction-granularity-spec), with non-null values for each of `segmentGranularity`, `queryGranularity`, and `rollup`
-- [`dimensionsSpec`](#compaction-dimensions-spec)
-- `metricsSpec`
-
-Compaction tasks exit without doing anything and issue a failure status code in either of the following cases:
-
-- If the interval you specify has no data segments loaded.
-- If the interval you specify is empty.
-
-Note that the metadata between input segments and the resulting compacted segments may differ if the metadata among the input segments differs as well. If all input segments have the same metadata, however, the resulting output segment will have the same metadata as all input segments.

-### Example compaction task
-
-The following JSON illustrates a compaction task to compact _all segments_ within the interval `2020-01-01/2021-01-01` and create new segments:
-
-```json
-{
-  "type": "compact",
-  "dataSource": "wikipedia",
-  "ioConfig": {
-    "type": "compact",
-    "inputSpec": {
-      "type": "interval",
-      "interval": "2020-01-01/2021-01-01"
-    }
-  },
-  "granularitySpec": {
-    "segmentGranularity": "day",
-    "queryGranularity": "hour"
-  }

-
-`granularitySpec` is an optional field.
-If you don't specify `granularitySpec`, Druid retains the original segment and query granularities when compaction is complete.
-
-### Compaction I/O configuration
-
-The compaction `ioConfig` requires specifying `inputSpec` as follows:
-
-|Field|Description|Default|Required|
-|-----|-----------|-------|--------|
-|`type`|Task type. Set the value to `compact`.|none|Yes|
-|`inputSpec`|Specification of the target [interval](#interval-inputspec) or [segments](#segments-inputspec).|none|Yes|
-|`dropExisting`|If `true`, the task replaces all existing segments fully contained by either of the following:<br />- the `interval` in the `interval` type `inputSpec`.<br />- the umbrella interval of the `segments` in the `segment` type `inputSpec`.<br />If compaction fails, Druid does not change any of the existing segments.<br />**WARNING**: `dropExisting` in `ioConfig` is a beta feature. |false|No|
-|`allowNonAlignedInterval`|If `true`, the task allows an explicit [`segmentGranularity`](#compaction-granularity-spec) that is not aligned with the provided [interval](#interval-inputspec) or [segments](#segments-inputspec). This parameter is only used if [`segmentGranularity`](#compaction-granularity-spec) is explicitly provided.<br /><br />This parameter is provided for backwards compatibility. In most scenarios it should not be set, as it can lead to data being accidentally overshadowed. This parameter may be removed in a future release.|false|No|

-The compaction task has two kinds of `inputSpec`:
-
-#### Interval `inputSpec`
-
-|Field|Description|Required|

-|`segments`|A list of segment IDs.|Yes|
-
-### Compaction dimensions spec
-
-|Field|Description|Required|
-|-----|-----------|--------|
-|`dimensions`| A list of dimension names or objects. Cannot have the same column in both `dimensions` and `dimensionExclusions`. Defaults to `null`, which preserves the original dimensions.|No|
-|`dimensionExclusions`| The names of dimensions to exclude from compaction. Only names are supported here, not objects. This list is only used if the dimensions list is null or empty; otherwise it is ignored. Defaults to `[]`.|No|
-
-### Compaction transform spec
-
-|Field|Description|Required|
-|-----|-----------|--------|
-|`filter`| The `filter` conditionally filters input rows during compaction. Only rows that pass the filter will be included in the compacted segments. Any of Druid's standard [query filters](../querying/filters.md) can be used. Defaults to 'null', which will not filter any row. |No|
-
-### Compaction granularity spec
-
-|Field|Description|Required|
-|-----|-----------|--------|
-|`segmentGranularity`|Time chunking period for the segment granularity. Defaults to 'null', which preserves the original segment granularity. Accepts all [Query granularity](../querying/granularities.md) values.|No|
-|`queryGranularity`|The resolution of timestamp storage within each segment. Defaults to 'null', which preserves the original query granularity. Accepts all [Query granularity](../querying/granularities.md) values.|No|
-|`rollup`|Enables compaction-time rollup. To preserve the original setting, keep the default value. To enable compaction-time rollup, set the value to `true`. Once the data is rolled up, you can no longer recover individual records.|No|
