ability to increment a counter without reading original value from storage
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HBASE-3434
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-3434
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: client, regionserver
Reporter: dhruba borthakur
Assignee: dhruba borthakur
There are a bunch of applications that do read-modify-write operations on HBase
constructs, e.g a counter; The counter value has to be read in from hdfs
before it can be incremented. We have an application where the number of
increments on a counter far outnumbers the number of times the counter is used
or read. For these type of applications, it will be very beneficial to not have
to read in the counter from disk before it can be incremented.
