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

             Summary: Use the latest Httpclient/Httpcore 5.x  in HBase
                 Key: HBASE-28499
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-28499
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: REST
            Reporter: Istvan Toth


HttpClient 4.x is not actively maintained.

We use Httpclient directly in the REST client code, and in the tests for 
several modules.

Httpclient 4.5 is a transitive dependency at least from Hadoop and Thrift, but 
httpclient 5.x uses a separate java package, so 4.5 and 5.x  should be able to 
co-exist fine.

As of now, Httpclient 4.5 is in maintenance mode:
