Duo Zhang commented on HBASE-29762:
-----------------------------------
We even have some methods in Admin interface where we pass a ServerName from
client to server, like getRegions, compact, etc, so here means we should do the
replacement in all these methods? It will be really difficult to maintain as we
may add new methods in the future. Consider this, maybe we should change the
implementation of ServerName? Where we have multiple hostname/port pairs?
I do not think 'they are not in current scope' is an acceptable answer here. We
should have a workable design first, and then 'they are not in phase I, will be
implemented in phase II'.
Thanks.
> Support external client connection to kubernetized HBase cluster
> ----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HBASE-29762
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-29762
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Balazs Meszaros
> Assignee: Balazs Meszaros
> Priority: Major
>
> When HBase is deployed to kubernetes, kubernetes assigns its own hostnames to
> HBase pods. It works fine while the clients are in the same kubernetes
> environment, but can be an issue if they are coming from outside the
> kubernetes environment. Kubernetes offers several methods for exposing
> services like Istio, Load Balancers, ... Any method can be used, but these
> methods share one thing: the external addresses are different from the
> internal addresses.
> The goal is to support external HBase client connection to kubernetized HBase
> clusters. The idea is to implement a co-processor which translates the
> internal addresses to external addresses. This translation is optional based
> on a client connection header (which is coming from a configuration property).
> This task sums up these efforts:
> * [HBASE-29763] Implement co-processor host for client-meta (Zookeeper-less
> HBase discovery) service.
> * [HBASE-29764] Make client connection header attributes accessible inside
> co-processors.
> * [HBASE-29765] Make client connection header attributes configurable.
> * [HBASE-29766] Implement a co-processor which intercepts client-meta calls,
> {{hbase:meta}} table gets/scans and replaces internal addresses with external
> addresses.
