Kay Kay commented on HBASE-2170:
--------------------------------

| current "core" module in at least three parts: common, client and server. 

| .. the common module which hopefully has none or very little external 
dependencies.


+1 . That is something along the lines of what I was thinking. 

It is true it might need another round of refactoring of code. I was thinking 
of adding ipc / client and thrift/generated (and stargate client ) packages in 
the client . 

I believe that it might be very useful long term for the adoption of the client 
alone with specific focus on examples , while there could be more focus on the 
server module. And yes - the client library would be much more light-weight 
than the entire app server . 

I can spend some time too on this one, now that we have a stable build, it 
might be good to have a look at this.

> As a wish - it would be nice to have a hbase client library (subset of the 
> current hbase distribution) that needs to be present at the hbase client 
> level to interact with the master/region servers. 
> From an app integration - users of hbase can just link against the client 
> library as opposed to getting the entire library to link against.
