Dave Latham commented on HBASE-13101: ------------------------------------- Related to HBASE-11598 ? > RPC throttling to protect against malicious clients > --------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-13101 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-13101 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Brainstorming > Components: regionserver > Reporter: Nick Dimiduk > > We should protect a region server from poorly designed/implemented > clients/schemas that result in a "hotspot" which overwhelms a single machine. > A client that creates a new connection for each request is an example of this > case, where META gets completely flooded and kills the RS. Master diligently > brings it up on another host, which sends the traffic along to the next > victim, and will slowly bring down the whole cluster. > My suggestion is rate-limiting per client, implemented at the RPC level, but > I'm looking for other suggestions. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
