I have not used the thrift interface, but know that many others are. I doubt that they are seeing an order of magnitude decrease in performance. What have others seen with thrift?
There are talks of a new client-side API. To my knowledge no one is working on this, so it is not currently scheduled for any upcoming release. There are a number of people who would be interested in it, so please continue discussion on the issue if you have an interest in it. Here is the open issue regarding this (Pure C/C++ client libraries): https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-1015 JG > -----Original Message----- > From: Slava Gorelik [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Tuesday, December 09, 2008 6:12 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Thrift API vs Java API > > Hi.Currently i'm trying to communicate with Hbase from .NET environment > and > the only option that i have is Thrift. > I did small comparison (execution time) between Java and Thrift (adding > 1000 > rows with 1k data) and Java is 3.4 ms (average) vs. Thrift that is 44 > ms > average. > It seems that Thrift option is not usable from performance aspect. > > Now he question : some one tried to implement Hbase client side in C++ > / > .NET ?
