Hi everyone, Spoke with Sameer who originally started the HBase branch of MetaModel on the old infrastructure and we thought it would be good to also make a remote branch in the Git repo for this effort. The HBase module does pose a few challenges [1], so having it on a branch would allow developers to work on it without having to deliver a fully fledged solution from the first patch.
Is that a good use of a Git remote branch, or do we need some Git education on this? :-) Regards, Kasper [1] One of the distinct challenges of HBase so far has been that the data types are not directly visible - everything is more or less just a byte array. Another issue is how we should represent the nested column structure of HBase (every column has a 'column family'). And there are probably more...
