Tom White commented on HADOOP-2604: ----------------------------------- If MapFile.Reader were an interface (or an abstract class with a no args constructor) then BloomFilterMapFile.Reader, HalfMapFileReader and caching Readers could be implemented as wrappers instead of in a static hierarchy. This would make it easier to mix and match readers (e.g. with or without caching) without passing all possible parameters in the constructor. > [hbase] Create an HBase-specific MapFile implementation > ------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-2604 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2604 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: contrib/hbase > Reporter: Bryan Duxbury > Priority: Minor > > Today, HBase uses the Hadoop MapFile class to store data persistently to > disk. This is convenient, as it's already done (and maintained by other > people :). However, it's beginning to look like there might be possible > performance benefits to be had from doing an HBase-specific implementation of > MapFile that incorporated some precise features. > This issue should serve as a place to track discussion about what features > might be included in such an implementation. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
