Nick Dimiduk commented on PHOENIX-971: -------------------------------------- [~jamestaylor] bq. What kind of new dependencies would that require? How light/heavy would the client-side be? If we implement the thrift interface entirely on our own, we include whatever dependencies we need to implement the service layer -- nothing HBase doesn't already use, I imagine. Client would be a simple thrift client, nothing more. bq. Another option would be to use the Apache Calcite Avatica RPC server (http://s.apache.org/wwd). I looked in Calcite for an RPC server but didn't find one. Thanks for the link. I think pushing the implementation to Calcite makes a lot of sense. Hive has invested a lot into HS2/beeline, I'm not excited to repeat that process. The benefit of HS2 thrift over Avatica is maturity. There's already tooling for non-Java languages to use HS2. > Query server > ------------ > > Key: PHOENIX-971 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-971 > Project: Phoenix > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Andrew Purtell > > Host the JDBC driver in a query server process that can be deployed as a > middle tier between lighter weight clients and Phoenix+HBase.
