Sergey Shelukhin commented on HBASE-5487:
-----------------------------------------
we still need a reliable store (ZK, system table, or master WAL). It seems ZK
is the most scalable and best suited for the task. In perfect world we would
have ZK library that we could host and have a quorum of masters running
Paxos/ZK. But we don't have that...
> Generic framework for Master-coordinated tasks
> ----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HBASE-5487
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5487
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: master, regionserver, Zookeeper
> Affects Versions: 0.94.0
> Reporter: Mubarak Seyed
> Priority: Critical
> Attachments: Region management in Master.pdf
>
>
> Need a framework to execute master-coordinated tasks in a fault-tolerant
> manner.
> Master-coordinated tasks such as online-scheme change and delete-range
> (deleting region(s) based on start/end key) can make use of this framework.
> The advantages of framework are
> 1. Eliminate repeated code in Master, ZooKeeper tracker and Region-server for
> master-coordinated tasks
> 2. Ability to abstract the common functions across Master -> ZK and RS -> ZK
> 3. Easy to plugin new master-coordinated tasks without adding code to core
> components
