-------------------------------------
Summary: Upgrade Jetty to 9.2.6
Key: HBASE-12894
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-12894
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: REST
Affects Versions: 0.98.0
Reporter: Rick Hallihan
The Jetty component that is used for the HBase Stargate REST endpoint is
version 6.1.26 and is fairly outdated. We recently had a customer inquire about
enabling cross-origin resource sharing (CORS) for the REST endpoint and found
that this older version does not include the necessary filter or configuration
options, highlighted at:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Jetty/Feature/Cross_Origin_Filter
The Jetty project has had significant updates through versions 7, 8 and 9,
including a transition to be an Eclipse subproject, so updating to the latest
version may be non-trivial. The last update to the Jetty component in
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-3377 was a minor version update and
did not require significant work. This update will include a package namespace
update so there will likely be a larger number of required changes.
