Ted Yu commented on HBASE-4477:
-------------------------------
{code}
+ public static final String WAL_META_ATTRIBUTE_NAME = "_hbaseWalMetadata";
{code}
Maybe the 'hbase' is not needed in the WAL_META_ATTRIBUTE_NAME.

> mySQL allows an application to store an arbitrary blob along with each
> transaction in its transaction logs. This JIRA is to have a similar feature
> request for HBASE.
> The use case is as follows: An application on one data center A stores a blob
> of data along with each transaction. A replication software picks up these
> blobs from the transaction logs in A and hands it to another instance of the
> same application running on a remote data center B. The application in B is
> responsible for applying this to the remote Hbase cluster (and also handle
> conflict resolution if any).
