             Summary: Merge hbase-prefixtree into hbase-server
                 Key: HBASE-7978
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-7978
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: HFile
    Affects Versions: 0.95.0, 0.98.0
            Reporter: Enis Soztutar


I would like to discuss the possibility of merging the prefix tree module into 
the hbase-server module. 

Ideally, I think we should have hbase-mapreduce and hbase-storage modules, the 
latter one containing most of HFile code. hbase-mapreduce depends on 
hbase-storage so that it knows how to encode hfiles. prefix-tree belongs to 
hbase-storage. 

prefix tree is just another DBE, although a big one, and it rightfully belongs 
with her sisters. The fact that the code is independent from the rest of the 
code base does not mean that it should have it's own module. We should keep the 
number of modules manageable, and stay away from hadoop trunk's 
one-module-per-package policy.
