Gary Helmling commented on HBASE-4460: -------------------------------------- Also just to second what Andy said for longer-term, we'll still want to somehow provide SASL auth for thrift clients, with the thrift server acting as a proxy on their behalf, but that seems a much bigger project. > Support running an embedded ThriftServer within a RegionServer > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-4460 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-4460 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: regionserver, thrift > Reporter: Jonathan Gray > Assignee: Jonathan Gray > Attachments: HBASE-4460-v1.patch > > > Rather than a separate process, it can be advantageous in some situations for > each RegionServer to embed their own ThriftServer. This allows each embedded > ThriftServer to short-circuit any queries that should be executed on the > local RS and skip the extra hop. This then enables the building of fat > Thrift clients that cache region locations and avoid extra hops all together. > This JIRA is just about the embedded ThriftServer. Will open others for the > rest. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
