Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-6721:
---------------------------------------
Agreed we should evaluate these changes on their own merit.
No core changes at all isn't a reasonable precondition because even with
implementing as a coprocessor based feature we'd need new hooks. Those hooks
would touch the same places. IMHO implementing as a coprocessor based feature
makes little sense given the relatively small changes needed. it would
unnecessarily pollute our space of admin APIs and shell commands with seperate
APIs for optional feature like we have with security.
Agreed the ops impact should be totally optional. Where these changes modify
existing function it's reasonable to make sure the modified behavior all sits
behind configuration based conditionals.

> In multi-tenant deployments of HBase, it is likely that a RegionServer will
> be serving out regions from a number of different tables owned by various
> client applications. Being able to group a subset of running RegionServers
> and assign specific tables to it, provides a client application a level of
> isolation and resource allocation.
> The proposal essentially is to have an AssignmentManager which is aware of
> RegionServer groups and assigns tables to region servers based on groupings.
> Load balancing will occur on a per group basis as well.
> This is essentially a simplification of the approach taken in HBASE-4120. See
> attached document.
