While it may be possible, please do not do this. This is not a designed
feature of the Iterator framework and will likely result in a deadlock
of the system and/or resources leaks in the Accumulo TabletServers.

Good afternoon,
I am trying to develop a custom iterator that has the ability to write
out data to another table. In the Accumulo book, there is a paragraph
that mentions that this is theoretically possible, however after
searching the internet, I have had no luck learning how this would be
possible. Is there some sort of API that I can use to write to a table
from inside the iterator’s code?
Thanks,
Leo
