Anoop Sam John commented on HBASE-11639: ---------------------------------------- I think there is no issue with custom replication endpoint. What we do is create a wrapper on top of the replication EP. This is done in VC new hook impl. So this will wrap the custom Replication EP. System calls the wrapper 1st and it convert visibility to String based and then the custom EP which can do its function. Does that sounds good enough Andy? > [Visibility controller] Replicate the visibility of Cells as strings > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-11639 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-11639 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Replication, security > Affects Versions: 0.98.4 > Reporter: ramkrishna.s.vasudevan > Assignee: ramkrishna.s.vasudevan > Labels: VisibilityLabels > Fix For: 1.0.0, 2.0.0 > > Attachments: HBASE-11639_amend.patch, HBASE-11639_v11.patch, > HBASE-11639_v13.patch, HBASE-11639_v13.patch, HBASE-11639_v14.patch, > HBASE-11639_v15.patch, HBASE-11639_v16.patch, HBASE-11639_v17.patch, > HBASE-11639_v2.patch, HBASE-11639_v2.patch, HBASE-11639_v3.patch, > HBASE-11639_v3.patch, HBASE-11639_v5.patch, HBASE-11639_v6.patch, > HBASE-11639_v9.patch > > > This issue is aimed at persisting the visibility labels as strings in the WAL > rather than Label ordinals. This would help in replicating the label > ordinals to the replication cluster as strings directly and also that after > HBASE-11553 would help because the replication cluster could have an > implementation as string based visibility labels. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
