He Liangliang created HBASE-12452: ------------------------------------- Summary: Add regular expression based split policy Key: HBASE-12452 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-12452 Project: HBase Issue Type: Improvement Components: regionserver Reporter: He Liangliang Assignee: He Liangliang Priority: Minor
The current DelimitedKeyPrefixRegionSplitPolicy split policy is not flexible enough to describe the split point prefix in some case. A regex based split policy is proposed, for example: ^[^\x00]+\x00[^\x00]+\x00 means the split point will always be truncated to a prefix at the second \0 char. We rely on this to implement local secondary index with data types. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
