Duo Zhang commented on HBASE-25761: ----------------------------------- I have to go to work after the meeting so 9AM is not suitable for me... But I think we could move it earlier, like 7:15 AM or 7:30 AM is also OK for me. Thanks. > POC: hbase:meta,,1 as ROOT > -------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-25761 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-25761 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Michael Stack > Assignee: Francis Christopher Liu > Priority: Major > > One of the proposals up in the split-meta design doc suggests a > sleight-of-hand where the current hard-coded hbase:meta,,1 Region is > leveraged to serve as first Region of a split hbase:meta but also does > double-duty as 'ROOT'. This suggestion was put aside as a complicating > recursion in chat but then Francis noticed on a re-read of the BigTable > paper, that this is how they describe they do 'ROOT': "The root tablet is > just the first tablet in the METADATA table, but is treated specially -- it > is never split..." > This issue is for playing around with this notion to see what the problems > are so can do a better description of this approach here, in the design: > https://docs.google.com/document/d/11ChsSb2LGrSzrSJz8pDCAw5IewmaMV0ZDN1LrMkAj4s/edit?ts=606c120f#heading=h.ikbhxlcthjle -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
