Hi All,
I have two Question *Question 1 : * I want to understand how rowkey distribution happen if I create my table with out applying any policy but opting prefix salting. Example I have rowkey like SALT_ID_DayStartTimestamp_DayEndTimeStamp_IDTimeStamp So it will look like as below *_99_1516838400_1516924800_1516865160 Question is : now I can not see that my data is getting distributed only because of salt. So does I have only choice of pre splitting? Or do I have any other option? I have seen two more approaches i.e. hbase org.apache.hadoop.hbase.util.RegionSplitter test_table HexStringSplit -c 10 -f f1 I guess its scope is limited as number of region created at the time table creation and it will fix? Not sure. and *UniformSplit <https://hbase.apache.org/0.94/apidocs/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/util/RegionSplitter.UniformSplit.html>* *Second 2: Does number of split point anywhere related to the number of RS in cluster, If yes what is the calculation? *
