Thanks for looking into the Cassandra connector. Maybe @zentol (who
implemented the Cassandra connector) can comment how an HBase sink can be made
fault-tolerant and what code could be reused for that.
Idempotent (put, delete) and non-idempotent modifications (increment,
append) have different implications on fault-tolerance semantics. I think it
would be a good idea to separate both types of modifications to make this
difference more clear.
I would be OK updating the version update to HBase 1.1.6 or 1.2.x under the
condition that these versions are backwards compatible to 1.1.2. @nielsbasjes,
would that be OK for you as well? We have an ongoing discussion to merge batch
and streaming connectors. So this code would end up in the same module as the
batch `TableInputFormat` and we should keep the HBase versions synced.
