James Taylor commented on PHOENIX-1311:
---------------------------------------
Good idea, [~nmaillard]. Phoenix already has the concept of a "schema", so it'd
be good to tie the concept of a Phoenix schema to an HBase namespace. For
example, you can define a table like this:
{code}
CREATE TABLE my_schema.my_table (k VARCHAR PRIMARY KEY);
{code}
In this case, my_table could be defined in the the my_schema namespace.

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-1311
> Project: Phoenix
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: maillard
> Priority: Minor
>
> Hbase (HBASE-8015) has the concept of namespaces in the form of
> myNamespace:MyTable it would be great if Phoenix leveraged this feature to
> give a database like feature on top of the table.
> Maybe to stay close to Hbase it could also be a create DB:Table...
> or DB.Table which is a more standard annotation?
