>
> Quite a few components in Bigtop have, what's known as, soft dependency. They
> detect presence of other Bigtop components during run-time and extend their
> functionality accordingly. A good example of that is Pig, which, if HBase
> client jars are present would allow HBase queries to be performed. We have to
> come up with the best client delivery strategy for such things. One option is
> to split things like HBase into multiple packages, like lib, client, and
> server - but that requires upstream changes as well to split the jars up.
> Another approach is to have subpackages (e.g. hbase-hive subpackage or
> hbase-pig, etc.) We have to come up with a unifying strategy for how to deal
> with this.
