> The Upsert statement does not support HBase's checkAndPut api, thus making it
> difficult to conditionally update a row. Based on the comments from
> PHOENIX-6, I have implemented such functionality. The Upsert statement is
> modified to support compare clause, which allows us to pass in an expression.
> The expression is evaluated against the current record and Upsert is only
> performed when the expression evaluates to true. More details
> [here|https://github.com/babartareen/phoenix].
> h4. Examples
> Given that the FirstName is always set for the users, create a user record if
> one doesn't already exist.
> {code:sql}
> UPSERT INTO User (UserId, FirstName, LastName, Phone, Address, PIN) VALUES
> (1, 'Alice', 'A', '123 456 7890', 'Some St. in a city', 1122) COMPARE
> FirstName IS NULL;
> {code}
> Update the phone number for UserId '1' if the FirstName is set. Given that
> the FirstName is always set for the users, this will only update the record
> if it already exists.
> {code:sql}
> UPSERT INTO User (UserId, Phone) VALUES (1, '987 654 3210') COMPARE FirstName
> IS NOT NULL;
> {code}
> Update the phone number if the first name for UserId '1' starts with 'Al' and
> last name is 'A'
> {code:sql}
> UPSERT INTO User (UserId, Phone) VALUES (1, '987 654 3210') COMPARE FirstName
> LIKE 'Al%' AND LastName = 'A';
> {code}
