Brian Johnson commented on HBASE-12215:
---------------------------------------
We want to pick out a subset of rowkey prefixes. In our case the row key is
user_id|event_id and we want to retrieve all the events for a subset of users.
I don't believe that's possible with FuzzyRowFilter. Phoenix's SkipScanFilter
does what we want and is blazingly fast, but requires defining Phoenix metadata
for the tables and we really want something that works with thrift/rest for our
non-java applications.
> PrefixFilter should use SEEK_NEXT_USING_HINT

> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 0.98.6.1
> Reporter: Brian Johnson
>
> PrefixFilter is really just a specialized case of FuzzyFilter. It could be
> implemented on top of it, but at the very least it should take advantage of
> SEEK_NEXT_USING_HINT for performance reasons
