Patrick Wendell commented on SPARK-2447:
----------------------------------------

Hey All,

I have a question about this - is there any reason this can't exist as a user 
library instead of being merged into Spark itself? For these utility libraries 
like this, I could see ones coming for Cassandra, Mongo, etc... I don't see it 
scaling to put and maintain all of these in the Spark code base. At the same 
time however, they are super useful.

As an alternative - what about if it was in HBase similar to e.g. the Hadoop 
InputFormat implementation?

> Going to review the design with Tdas today.  
> But first thoughts is to have an extension of VoidFunction that handles the 
> connection to HBase and allows for options such as turning auto flush off for 
> higher through put.
> Need to answer the following questions first.
> - Can it be written in Java or should it be written in Scala?
> - What is the best way to add the HBase dependency? (will review how Flume 
> does this as the first option)
> - What is the best way to do testing? (will review how Flume does this as the 
> first option)
> - How to support python? (python may be a different Jira it is unknown at 
> this time)
> Goals:
> - Simple to use
> - Stable
> - Supports high load
> - Documented (May be in a separate Jira need to ask Tdas)
> - Supports Java, Scala, and hopefully Python
> - Supports Streaming and normal Spark
