maghamravikiran commented on PHOENIX-2786: ------------------------------------------ [~churromorales] From what I see, MultiTableOutputFormat uses the Put / Delete mutation rather than writing to HFiles that MultiHfileOutputFormat does. We definitely have seen times , for ex: for a newly created table , doing direct writes to HBase perform way better than bulk load but in general writing to HFiles performs better. I definitely agree to your valid point that the code in MultiHfileOutputFormat has a lot from HfileOutputFormat except for few minor changes. > Can MultiTableOutputFormat be used instead of MultiHfileOutputFormat > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: PHOENIX-2786 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-2786 > Project: Phoenix > Issue Type: Task > Reporter: churro morales > > MultiHfileOutputFormat depends on a lot of HBase classes that it shouldn't > depend on. It seems like MultiHfileOutputFormat and MultiTableOutputFormat > have the same goal. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
