> The update column family operation in REST interface will overwrite the
> default metadata using the default value which is unexpected.
> We should use the column family to get the old value and then do update if
> requested by the users.
> Also, for non-default metadata value, such as
> "hbase.hregion.majorcompaction", we should still be enable to create/update
> it using REST interface.
> For RowHandler, the user can request with offset and limit and get the rows.
