> All the documentation I find about HBase says that if you want forward and
> reverse scans you should just build 2 tables and one be ascending and one
> descending. Is there a fundamental reason that HBase only supports forward
> Scan? It seems like a lot of extra space overhead and coding overhead (to
> keep them in sync) to support 2 tables.
> I am assuming this has been discussed before, but I can't find the
> discussions anywhere about it or why it would be infeasible.
