Elliott Clark commented on HBASE-11165:
---------------------------------------

bq.Is the failure you refer to our having a root and not making use of it?
No. I was referring to HDFS Federation as a failure.  In my mind it's a 
failure.  99% of HDFS users don't need or want it yet federation slows down all 
feature developent and increases complexity on just about every operation. 

In my mind the solutions being discussed here seem to run parallel. 99% of 
users don't need them but everyone's going to deal with extra lookpus on region 
location misses and extra complexity while running the system.

> Scaling so cluster can host 1M regions and beyond (50M regions?)

> This discussion issue comes out of "Co-locate Meta And Master HBASE-10569" 
> and comments on the doc posted there.
> A user -- our Francis Liu -- needs to be able to scale a cluster to do 1M 
> regions maybe even 50M later.  This issue is about discussing how we will do 
> that (or if not 50M on a cluster, how otherwise we can attain same end).
> More detail to follow.
