stack commented on HBASE-11316:
-------------------------------
Folks seem to update hfile rather than put in place a new version (it is on
version 3 at the moment). hfile seems to be known outside hbase (we bulk
import hfiles, not storefiles).
hfile is used more often in our doc currently:
kalashnikov:docbkx stack$ grep hfile *|wc
97 980 11524
kalashnikov:docbkx stack$ grep -i hfile * |wc
252 4413 35218
kalashnikov:docbkx stack$ grep -i storefile * |wc
188 2386 22833
If you just use storefile, folks will wonder where hfile fits.
You are the boss. Pick one. Just explain how the two relate on first use.
Good on you misty. Ditto with column family/Store.
