Hi All, I want to understand Region Split policy used by HBase when I create table through Phoenix.
E.g. CREATE TABLE foo (rowkey VARCHAR PRIMARY KEY, col1 VARCHAR) SALT_BUCKETS = 20 ; This will create 20 pre-split regions.. Region1 - START KEY - ' ' , END_KEY - '\x01 \x00' Region2 - START KEY - '\x01\x00' END_KEY - '\x02 \x00' and so on.. What will be the boundaries of new region if one of pre-splitted regions gets filled up. Hbase documentation says, there are there are four Split policies available - KeyPrefixRegionSplitPolicy ConstantSizeRegionSplitPolicy DelimitedKeyPrefixRegionSplitPolicy IncreasingToUpperBoundRegionSplitPolicy Which policy will be used to create new region? Cheers, Pari
