James Taylor commented on PHOENIX-1311: --------------------------------------- I like the idea of having this just impact the physical name we store, but I think there may be corner cases. Also, the CREATE TABLE case may be tricky, as we create the metadata before we really have a PTable. I think it'd be ok to have a global client-side config that enables/disables this functionality (or alternatively, it's always on, but we force an upgrade prior to usage). One more minor nit: rather than a version flag on the SYSTEM.CATALOG table, we typically have a boolean indicator specific to the feature on whether it's enabled or not. > HBase namespaces surfaced in phoenix > ------------------------------------ > > Key: PHOENIX-1311 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-1311 > Project: Phoenix > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: nicolas maillard > Assignee: Ankit Singhal > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 4.8.0 > > Attachments: PHOENIX-1311.docx, PHOENIX-1311_wip.patch, > PHOENIX-1311_wip_2.patch > > > Hbase (HBASE-8015) has the concept of namespaces in the form of > myNamespace:MyTable it would be great if Phoenix leveraged this feature to > give a database like feature on top of the table. > Maybe to stay close to Hbase it could also be a create DB:Table... > or DB.Table which is a more standard annotation? -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
