Nicolas Liochon commented on HBASE-9359:
----------------------------------------
The issue I have with ycsb is that I would like to keep the compatibility with
the previous hbase versions. I can do with two connectors, but it's not great.
As well, I think it's representative of a simple client (while writable are a
little bit less simple, as it means you're writing a filter).
KeyValue is not deprecated in 0.94: we're going directly from standard to non
existent. Note that I don't advocate so much for doing a deprecate in 0.96 and
a delete in 0.98: as we want to have two close releases it's more work without
much benefits.
It would be interesting if someone could write his code in 0.94 in a way that
won't break in 0.96. But even for something as simple as raw(), I'm not sure
it's possible.
I don't know how many applications out there are *not* using the API impacted
by protobuf but *are* impacted by the KeyValue removal. If ycsb is the only
one, it's an easy decision...
