Bryan Duxbury commented on HADOOP-2667:
---------------------------------------
I'm not sure that streaming multi-gigabyte blobs into HBase really makes any
sense. If you're going to have a lot of multi-gigabyte blobs, HDFS is probably
a better fit for you, and just store the metadata in HBase.
However, I guess I could see situations where you might want to stream
something like a few megabytes rather than keep it all in memory. However, as I
understand it, the current RPC system probably wouldn't support this very well,
so it would bear some scrutiny.

> > Right now the only interface for insertion is via a byte[], which severely
> > limits the flexibility of the system. Added 2007-10-08 by stuhood.
> Tell us more Stu why you need this feature? (Because you want to write BLOBs
> of multiple Gigabytes into an hbase cell?)
> Added as part of migrating new feature requests from the obsoleted
