I agree that the HBase integration would be a reasonable starting point to look at. The Kudu integration is also interesting because there are also similarities and the integration is generally more optimised and featureful.
I think the devil is in the details - like Jim mentioned, auth can be tricky. And I think the amount of effort varies a lot depending on the required level of performance and polish.
