Subbu M Iyer commented on HBASE-4213:
-------------------------------------
Ted/Stack,
As we discussed here is the latest patch that support alter_instant, an instant
schema change command that supports (Add, Modify, Delete column and Modify
table) actions through ZK.
1. This pattern capitalizes on the fact that HRI's are now in HDFS and need not
be sent over again from Master to RS cloud on every schema change event.
2. Offers real time instant schema change as we bypass the explicit bulk
reassign (unassign + assign) of regions from master to RS.
3. Offers fault tolerant schema change support as schema changes now go through
ZK. Secondary master taking over a failed schema change will be addressed
through a separate JIRA.
> Support instant schema updates with out master's intervention (i.e with out
> enable/disable and bulk assign/unassign)
