Jason Rutherglen commented on HBASE-2357:
-----------------------------------------
Another way to implement this functionality is for the slave(s) to loop on the
HLog.Reader? Are there any potential problems with that?
I'm not sure how the Coprocessor implementation would look, would the master
push entries out? Isn't that somewhat problematic, eg, when a slave goes down,
an entry isn't sent or is skipped?

> I dont plan on working on this in the short term, but the idea is to extend
> region ownership to have two modes. Each region has one primary region server
> and N slave region servers. The slaves would follow the master (probably by
> streaming the relevant HLog entries directly from it) and be able to serve
> stale reads. The benefit is twofold: (a) provides the ability to spread read
> load, (b) enables very fast region failover/rebalance since the memstore is
> already nearly up to date on the slave RS.
