Jordan Zimmerman commented on HBASE-7411: ----------------------------------------- Jordan Zimmerman (Curator Author here). I've been talking for a while with the ZK devs about putting Curator into Apache. The last discussions regarding this were last year. I'm willing to discuss again if needed. > Use Netflix's Curator zookeeper library > --------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-7411 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-7411 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Zookeeper > Affects Versions: 0.96.0 > Reporter: Enis Soztutar > Assignee: Enis Soztutar > Attachments: hbase-7411_v0.patch > > > We have mentioned using the Curator library > (https://github.com/Netflix/curator) elsewhere but we can continue the > discussion in this. > The advantages for the curator lib over ours are the recipes. We have very > similar retrying mechanism, and we don't need much of the nice client-API > layer. > We also have similar Listener interface, etc. > I think we can decide on one of the following options: > 1. Do not depend on curator. We have some of the recipes, and some custom > recipes (ZKAssign, Leader election, etc already working, locks in HBASE-5991, > etc). We can also copy / fork some code from there. > 2. Replace all of our zk usage / connection management to curator. We may > keep the current set of API's as a thin wrapper. > 3. Use our own connection management / retry logic, and build a custom > CuratorFramework implementation for the curator recipes. This will keep the > current zk logic/code intact, and allow us to use curator-recipes as we see > fit. > 4. Allow both curator and our zk layer to manage the connection. We will > still have 1 connection, but 2 abstraction layers sharing it. This is the > easiest to implement, but a freak show? > I have a patch for 4, and now prototyping 2 or 3 whichever will be less > painful. > Related issues: > HBASE-5547 > HBASE-7305 > HBASE-7212 -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
