-----------------------------------

> Is the snappy-java JAR avail in maven repos?

It is, see http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.iq80.snappy/snappy

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8528
>             Project: Hadoop Common
>          Issue Type: Wish
>            Reporter: Dave Revell
>            Priority: Minor
>
> Using native libs for snappy has some disadvantages:
>  - Requires libhadoop and libsnappy to be installed on servers, test 
> machines, and any server running a minicluster with a SNAPPY CF
>  - Requires configuration of java.library.path
>  - Complicates the POM
> A pure java implementation of snappy is available, ASL2 licensed:  
> https://github.com/dain/snappy .
