> Due to column group structure,  Zebra can create extra files for namenode to 
> remember. That means namenode taking more memory for Zebra related files.
> The goal is to reduce the no of files/blocks
> The idea among various options is to use HAR ( Hadoop Archive ). Hadoop 
> Archive reduces the block  and file count by copying data from small files ( 
> 1M, 2M ...) into a hdfs-block of larger size. Thus, reducing the total no. of 
> blocks and files.
