Cluster status and region topology visualization
------------------------------------------------
Key: HBASE-1805
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-1805
Project: Hadoop HBase
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Andrew Purtell
Priority: Minor
There are several FOSS options for in-brower interactive data visualization.
For example:
Protovis: http://vis.stanford.edu/protovis/
Flare: http://flare.prefuse.org/
Javascript InfoVis Toolkit: http://thejit.org/
The master GUI is of limited utility for dealing with really large tables or
large clusters. It occurs to me looking over some of the examples/demos of the
above that both HBase cluster status and region topology could be profitably
rendered using such toolkits.
For example, go to the Flare demo page: http://flare.prefuse.org/demo . Click
on Layouts. Iterate over the sub options. Could be rendering region structure
... navigate and click through for metadata. From there, hyperlink to actions
or back to navigation. A pure Javascript example of something like this can be
found here: http://thejit.org/Jit/Examples/Spacetree/example1.html
Go back to the Flare demo page. Click on Treemap. Another visualization
suitable for tables. A pure Javascript analogue can be found here:
http://thejit.org/Jit/Examples/Treemap/example2.html
