Hi, Stack Coming back to this thread, i have meant to ask this question long ago. Do we support hbase-2 client going against hbase-1 server? We seem to be fine mix-and-match the clients and servers within the hbase-1 releases. And IIRC hbase-1 client is ok against 0.98 server. Suppose I have a product that depends and bundles HBase client. I want to upgrade the dependency to hbase-2 so that it can take advantages of and claim support of hbase-2. But does it mean that I will need drop the claims that the new version of the product support any hbase-1 backend?
Thanks.
