Enis Soztutar commented on HBASE-7999: -------------------------------------- After seeing Francis' namespace proposal (HBASE-8015), I wonder whether we really need to keep a bool in HTD. If we instead to a System namespace, all tables under it will automatically be system tables. > Add 'system' tables > ------------------- > > Key: HBASE-7999 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-7999 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: Client, master, Protobufs > Reporter: Jesse Yates > Assignee: Jesse Yates > Fix For: 0.96.0 > > Attachments: hbase-7999-v0.patch, hbase-7999-v2.patch > > > System tables are necessary as we start moving towards other internally > scoped uses for tables (already we have a similar paradigm with the ACL table > in the security stuff). This allows things like an statistics table, a > secondary index table, moving replication queues out of ZK - just to name a > couple of things that have come up. > The first use-case would be HBASE-7958 where we would want to support a > system level statistics table. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
