Thanks Guys for responding on a quick reply. HBase is indeed my first love :)
I was really interested in what DirectMemory could offer and am excited to see that its pretty awesome. I posed that question because I wasn't really sure as to what the rules were on the incubator :) Great to know I could get started right away. Shall start digging thru the code. I went through the road map and have a few questions: 1. File Storage - This was my main concern. This moves more towards a database approach or to be more specific Key Value store approach Aren't there existing file based solutions which can be used instead of developing another one? 2. Hazelcast for replication - If i get this right the idea to use it more like a replication framework and then use that to cache them onto the DirectMemory on the respective systems ? Lastly "I recently rewrote DM entirely for simplification." +1 on the fact of simplification. As Einstien once said " Make things as simple as possible, not simpler" :) Cheers, Akash A On Wed, Oct 19, 2011 at 8:33 AM, Raffaele P.
