>
> If a custom load balancer required to maintain region and corresponding
> server locations,
> we can capture this information when we run any balancer algorithm before
> assignment(like random,retain).
> But during master startup we will not call any balancer algorithm if a region
> already assinged
> During split also we open child regions first in RS and then notify to master
> through zookeeper.
> So split regions information cannot be captured into balancer.
> Since balancer has access to master we can get the information from online
> regions or region plan data structures in AM.
> But some use cases we cannot relay on this information(mainly to maintain
> colocation of two tables regions).
> So it's better to add some APIs to load balancer to notify balancer when
> *region is online or offline*.
> These APIs helps a lot to maintain *regions colocation through custom load
> balancer* which is very important in secondary indexing.
