Andrew Purtell created HBASE-14227: -------------------------------------- Summary: Fold special cased MOB APIs into existing APIs Key: HBASE-14227 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-14227 Project: HBase Issue Type: Task Reporter: Andrew Purtell Priority: Critical
There are a number of APIs that came in with MOB that are not new actions for HBase, simply new actions for a MOB implementation: - compactMob - compactMobs - majorCompactMob - majorCompactMobs - getMobCompactionState And in HBaseAdmin: - validateMobColumnFamily Remove these special cases from the Admin API where possible by folding them into existing APIs. We definitely don't need one method for a singleton and another for collections. Ideally we will not have any APIs named *Mob when finished, whether MOBs are in use on a table or not should be largely an internal detail. Exposing as schema option would be fine, this conforms to existing practice for other features. Marking critical because I think removing the *Mob special cased APIs should be a precondition for release of this feature either in 2.0 or as a backport. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
