Summary: Improvements to the import flow
Key: HBASE-10416
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-10416
Project: HBase
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: mapreduce
Reporter: Vasu Mariyala
Following improvements can be made to the Import logic
a) Make the import extensible (i.e., remove the filter from being a static
member of Import and make it an instance variable of the mapper, make the
mappers or variables of interest protected. )
b) Make sure that the Import calls filterRowKey method of the filter (Useful if
we want to filter the data of an organization based on the row key or using
filters like PrefixFilter). The existing test case in
TestImportExport#testWithFilter works with this assumption but is so far
successful because there is only one row inserted into the table.
c) Provide an option to specify the durability during the import (Specifying
the Durability as SKIP_WAL would improve the performance of restore
considerably.) [~lhofhansl] suggested that this should be a parameter to the
import.
d) Some minor refactoring to avoid building a comma separated string for the
filter args.
