> Hive/HBase already has similar or more powerful functionality, but using 
> hive/hbase is overkill or inconvenient for some cases, so add some 
> lightweight utility classes to only support range scan should be reasonable. 
> The utility classes include:
> # InputFormat supporting range scan: Indexed(Text|Binary)InputFormat
>   The input directory for IndexInputFormat should contain one partition index 
> and many tfiles, each tfile store a certain range of keys, not overlapping 
> with other tfiles, the boundaries are stored in partition index.
>   Add 4 jobconfs: mapred.indexed(text|binary)inputformat.key.(start|end), 
> indicate range scan parameters. 
>   For a mapreduce job using IndexedInputFormat, IndexedInputFormat.getSplits 
> filter out tfiles which are not in the scan range using partition index
>   IndexedInputFormat do not support multi directory & splitting in single 
> file, these can be added in future.
> # Tool to convert data of other format into IndexedInputForamt: 
> TotalOrderIndexBuilder
>   If the input data is already total order partitioned and is tfile format, 
> just add partition index to input directory
>   Or run InputSampler to generate partiton index, then run mapreduce job with 
> TotalOrder partitioner to generate tfile backed data, finally move partition 
> index to output directory. 
> # Client tool to scan/search indexed data directory
