Francis Liu commented on HBASE-10504:
-------------------------------------
+1 this is sorely needed. In our case we needed to add changes to
ReplicationSourceManager, ReplicationSource, ReplicationSink and
ReplicationZookeeper(?). I'll try to put up the changes we had to do.
For the use case of NRT listening on HBase changes. Maybe we should consider
making it a first class API instead of looking at replication interface changes
to support it. That way WALEdit would still be private-ish?

> HBase has replication. Fellas have been hijacking the replication apis to do
> all kinds of perverse stuff like indexing hbase content (hbase-indexer
> https://github.com/NGDATA/hbase-indexer) and our [~toffer] just showed up w/
> overrides that replicate via an alternate channel (over a secure thrift
> channel between dcs over on HBASE-9360). This issue is about surfacing these
> APIs as public with guarantees to downstreamers similar to those we have on
> our public client-facing APIs (and so we don't break them for downstreamers).
> Any input [~phunt] or [~gabriel.reid] or [~toffer]?
> Thanks.
