Subbu M Iyer commented on HBASE-451:
------------------------------------
So i think the consensus is to
1) start with writing the descriptor to HDFS rather than ZK?
2) Also, I believe that the data format should be in JSON in the file or ZK
which ever it may be?
Any preference on the JSON library (Jetty util/Jersey/Jettison/jackson) to use?

>
> There is an HRegionInfo for every region in HBase. Currently HRegionInfo also
> contains the HTableDescriptor (the schema). That means we store the schema n
> times where n is the number of regions in the table.
> Additionally, for every region of the same table that the region server has
> open, there is a copy of the schema. Thus it is stored in memory once for
> each open region.
> If HRegionInfo merely contained the table name the HTableDescriptor could be
> stored in a separate file and easily found.
